Details
Lately we've deployed 9 new
t3wn5[1-9]
servers featuring
64 CPU cores / 128GB RAM / 10Gbs cards ; they're already fully exploited by the T3 user jobs as you can easily check by :
qhost -j -q -h t3wn51 ; qhost -j -q -h t3wn52 ; qhost -j -q -h t3wn53 ; qhost -j -q -h t3wn54
qhost -j -q -h t3wn55 ; qhost -j -q -h t3wn56 ; qhost -j -q -h t3wn57 ; qhost -j -q -h t3wn58 ; qhost -j -q -h t3wn59
t3wn51 t3wn52 t3wn53 t3wn54 t3wn55 t3wn56 t3wn57 t3wn58 t3wn59
no action is required in order to get the jobs running there, actually these servers will be transparently selected by the batch system with higher preference
as a consequence of this CPU cores increase the T3 Steering Board will review the current
Batch System Policies in the next future by ( probably ) slightly raise the max allowed jobs thresholds per T3 user in each queue.
