Bear in mind that at least, last I knew, using a topology plugin will cause all of this to be ignored and, at least in our case, for SLURM to do roughly the opposite of what you want regarding weights (for us, this is because the highest weighted equipment was connected to the switch with the least connected equipment, so it tended to aim any job that would fit there to those nodes).
