Wishlists

Chris O'Grady
  • automatic job suspend/resume ("idle queue" behavior) (really want)
  • automatic afs tokens for mpi jobs on multiple nodes (would be nice)
  • job environment propagation (including limits) (necessary)
  • subgroup-specific accounting (control of queue-specific priority formula) (really want)
  • subgroup-specific administration (e.g. subgroup administrator btop, bkill privilege) (necessary)
  • cross-queue fairshare (with cpu-time weight) (necessary)
  • cpu reservations for MPI (necessary)
  • gpu support (necessary)
  • ability to submit jobs on hosts where we don't have accounts/home-directories (really want)
