HPC Job Scheduling Challenges and Successes from the PBS Community

ABSTRACT:
Decades ago, the first HPC systems were single-user. As soon as the technology allowed sharing, job scheduling became a necessity (for the sanity of the users and the administrators). More than 20 years ago, NASA developed the PBS software to fill this need. Now, PBS is consistently among the top 3 most-reported technologies for HPC job scheduling (as reported by IDC). But scheduling is hard -- every site has unique processes, unique goals, and unique requirements. Join fellow members of the community to share challenges and solutions and learn others' tips and tricks for scheduling in the modern world.
