Node grouping - config problems

Thanks, Alexis.

Yes, that will work - especially if I modify it to, say, -lplace=scatter:exclhost to avoid interference from other jobs. (Even though I have the MOMs configured to be job-exclusive, the scheduler seems to be unaware of this, so in order for it to “do its thing” (primarily estimating start times and effectively do backfilling) I have success telling it explicitly that the nodes will/should be exclusively for a job.

I am sorry that I did not cross-post to this thread, when a similar response was issued on a slightly different topic, and this got me looking for the -lplace syntax.

Many thanks and regards,
