Description
Scheduling jobs with heterogeneous resource requirements to a pool of
computers with heterogeneous resources is a challenging task and Condor
is beginning to tackle this in the most generic form. Integrating
so-called partitionable slots (a batch resource able to be sliced along
a variety of dimensions, from RAM to CPUs, to disks or even GPUs) with
the rest of Condor's accounting and matchmaking mechanisms is a
significant challenge. At BNL we began working closely with the Condor
team to integrate Condor's Hierarchical Accounting Groups with
partitionable slots in a consistent and correct manner. The results of
that work are presented in this talk.
