Chapter 14
Fairshare Scheduling
Example with
hierarchical
fairshare
In the share tree, User1 shares resources with GroupA at the top level. GroupA
has 2 subgroups, B and C. GroupC has 1 subgroup, GroupD. User1 also
belongs to GroupB and GroupC.
User1 submits a job:
% bsub sleep 100
By default, the job could be considered for dispatch if either User1, GroupB,
or GroupC has highest dynamic share priority.
User1 submits a job and associates the job with GroupB:
% bsub -G groupB sleep 100
If User1 or GroupC is the highest priority user, this job will not be considered.
◆ User1 cannot associate the job with GroupC, because GroupC includes a
subgroup.
◆ User1 cannot associate the job with his individual user account, because
bsub -G only accepts group names.
