Re: [HTCondor-users] Reserve slots for high priority jobs

[gagan tiwari <gagan.tiwari@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

One way I think of achievingÂthis is to have one more condor executor node and schedule all high priorityÂjobs by all users to that executor node only.

Means , instead of 1 core on 3 executer nodes , I want one executor node reserved for all high priorityÂjobs by users.

So, please let me know how I can set it up.Â

Thanks,

Gagan

Hi Guys,

         We have 3 htcondorÂexecutor nodes with 8 cores each. So, we have 24 slots available to run jobs.Â

Our requirement is to reserve at least 1 core on each executor node for highÂpriority jobs, so that 3 slots will remain available for all users to run their high priority jobs.Â

Job priority can't be used here because a user can set priority only for his/her jobs.Â

And userÂpriority also doesn't serve purpose because we need everyone to run his / her high priority job on thoseÂreserve cores.Â

So, please let me know how I can achieveÂthis.Â

Thanks,
