Hi everyone,

Many slurm jobs are running for days, and some of them have been going for almost a week. On the other hand, we have a lot of jobs that need to be done but are waiting for free cluster resources. I strongly advise that you do not start a lot of long-running slurm jobs simultaneously. This will block most of the cluster's resources, making them unavailable to other users. Instead, I suggest that you reduce the number of jobs you start or split them up into smaller pieces if you can. We're following the fair use principle and trying to stay away from rules and restrictions, which often make things more difficult to understand and use, as well as less flexible and efficient. Please take a look at your active jobs today and see where you can trim or pause them so your colleagues can get some work done.

Thanks for your help.

Best regards,

Slave
