[Zaphod-Users] job seduling

[John Dorelli]

Hi everyone,

We are currently reorganizing the Zaphod job scheduling system. 
Previously, Zaphod nodes were organized into partitions; and one
requested a particular partition in one's batch script as follows:

#PBS -W x=PARTITION:myrinet

We will be replacing the partitions with multiple queues which will be
mapped to different subsets of nodes.  In the meantime, one should
request different sets of nodes by referring to node attributes (eth,
myri or storage).  For example:

#PBS -l nodes=32:ppn=2:myri 

will give you 32 myrinet nodes.

Apologies for any inconvenience; we should have a new and improved
scheduling system soon (hopefully today).

John
