vsched provides efficient use and fair sharing of resources. All users are treated
alike by the scheduling algorithm. Potential abuse of the open nature of the system
is tempered by the computing usage policy.
For the general access queues, the policy specifies :
- Maximum number of node-wall-clock hours for all jobs in a given queue
belonging to a single user
- Time limit for any single job
Goals:
- Encourage parallel computing.
- Meet the needs of a diverse community.
Therefore, we will continue to evaluate our policy and to make adjustments
as our experience warrants.
