Hello,
I'm interested in hearing some best practice solutions in fine-grained
management memory resources on clusters of SMPs. How do you enforce real
memory usage inside (RHEL-based) cluster nodes running multiple serial
jobs simultaneously? More specifically, how to do this efficiently when
some of the jobs map copious amounts of virtual memory but have only a
fraction of it resident at any given time?
As SMP systems keep getting constantly fatter (and the potential for
users interfering with each others' jobs increasing) it would be great
to have something like AIX's WLM (Workload Manager) on Linux to
effectively manage intra-SMP resources.
