When you say you want everything to be set up as "dedicated resources", 
do you mean just machines that do not preempt jobs, or do you mean 
machines that run MPI jobs?  That's the main difference between the two 
cases you are comparing.

The "testingmode" example will run any jobs submitted from any schedd in 
your pool.  The dedicated resources example will only run MPI jobs 
submitted by the designated schedd.
