Dear Torque Users
In our cluster we would like to assign one node for testing jobs, and this
node should not accept any other jobs except those submitted to Test queue.
So, we created a Test queue, as follows:
qmgr
create queue Test
set queue Test queue_type = Execution
set queue Test max_user_queuable = 2
set queue Test max_user_run = 1
set queue Test keep_completed = 30
set queue Test enabled = True
set queue Test started = True
set queue Test resources_default.neednodes = Test
set queue Test resources_default.nodes=1:ppn=8
set queue Test resources_max.walltime = 00:03:00
set queue Test acl_hosts = hpc.compchem.net
set server node_pack=False
exit
As well, we define our node as Test in description, as follows:
#in /var/spool/torque/server_priv/nodes
hpc.compchem.net np=8 Test

Furthermore, we splitted our resources for Test node, as follows:
#in /opt/maui/maui.cfg
SRCFG[Test] HOSTLIST=hpc.compchem.net
SRCFG[Test] PERIOD=INFINITY
SRCFG[Test] TASKCOUNT=1
SRCFG[Test] RESOURCES=PROCS:8
SRCFG[Test] CLASSLIST=Test

Unfortunately, we have observed that default jobs some times go to Test
node.
How can we sort one node to accept only and only Test jobs.
Any kind of support will be highly appreciated
Sincerely;
M. Ibrahim
