Hi - I have a a cluster with several nodes where each node has 16 GB of RAM. I'm submitting jobs that require 8gb of memory on whatever node they are running on. The job script contains the directive:<div><br></div><div>
#PBS -l mem=8g</div><div><br></div><div>I noticed that the second directive doesn't effect the way torque distributes jobs. For instance, if all the nodes in my cluster are taken up, except for 1 node that is free. I can run the job 4 times and instead of seeing 2 jobs running and 2 waiting in the queue, all 4 jobs get executed on that free node. How do I get torque to taken the memory requested into account? </div>
