Typical Slot Allocation Scenarios
Typical Slot Allocation Scenarios
3 queues with SLOT_SHARE 50%, 30%, 20%, with 15 job slots
This scenario has three phases:
1 All three queues have jobs running, and LSF assigns the number of slots to
queues as expected: 8, 5, 2. Though queue Genova deserves 3 slots, the
total slot assignment must be 15, so Genova is allocated only 2 slots:
% bqueues
QUEUE_NAME PRIO STATUS MAX JL/U JL/P JL/H NJOBS PEND RUN SUSP
Roma 50 Open:Active - - - - 1000 992 8 0
Verona 48 Open:Active - - - - 995 990 5 0
Genova 48 Open:Active - - - - 996 994 2 0
2 When queue Verona has done its work, queues Roma and Genova get their
respective shares of 8 and 3.
This leaves 4 slots to be redistributed to queues according to their shares:
40% (2 slots) to Roma, 20% (1 slot) to Genova. The one remaining slot is
assigned to queue Roma again:
% bqueues
QUEUE_NAME PRIO STATUS MAX JL/U JL/P JL/H NJOBS PEND RUN SUSP
Roma 50 Open:Active - - - - 231 221 10 0
Verona 48 Open:Active - - - - 0 0 0 0
Genova 48 Open:Active - - - - 496 491 5 0
3 When queues Roma and Verona have no more work to do, Genova can
use all the available slots in the cluster:
% bqueues
QUEUE_NAME PRIO STATUS MAX JL/U JL/P JL/H NJOBS PEND RUN SUSP
Roma 50 Open:Active - - - - 0 0 0 0
Verona 48 Open:Active - - - - 0 0 0 0
