Hi,

We would like to impose a limit (QOS) on the number of CPUs used in the "def" partition by any account, where all accounts have this same limit.

In our case, we want every account to be able to consume no more than 2,352 CPUs simultaneously in the "def" partition.

I tried defining this:

$ sacctmgr show qos  format=name,priority,grptres,usagefactor
      Name   Priority       GrpTRES UsageFactor
---------- ---------- ------------- -----------
    normal          0                  1.000000
       def          0      cpu=2352    1.000000

And then applying the "def" QOS to the "def" partition, but that seemed to limit the total number of CPUs used on the partition aggregating the usage of all accounts.

How do we accomplish this without applying a QOS to each account separately?

Thanks,
    Dave
