Slurm is an open-source workload manager designed for *nix clusters
|
|
of all sizes. It provides three key functions. First it allocates
|
|
exclusive and/or non-exclusive access to resources (computer nodes)
|
|
to users for some duration of time so they can perform work. Second,
|
|
it provides a framework for starting, executing, and monitoring
|
|
work (typically a parallel job) on a set of allocated nodes. Finally,
|
|
it arbitrates contention for resources by managing a queue of
|
|
pending work.
