Hello
   We are testing out slurm with the intent of replacing Univa (sge based) in 
our environment. I was wondering if there was a guide mapping Univa/sge 
concepts to slurm concepts that would assist in converting our Univa 
usage/schedule policy into a slurm setup?

In particular, when using functional or fair share in Univa it starts with the 
assumption that it will try to evenly share the available slots among current 
users and modify that by the policy that is defined. Reading over the slurm 
documentation (And I still have more reading to do) it sounds like it starts 
with FIFO and then adjusts policy based on resource usage or billing depending 
on the setup. This is making it difficult for me to map the policy we have set 
up in Univa and described to our users to what I need to set up in slurm.

Is this a good place to ask for advice on setting up scheduler policy given a 
basic set of guidelines?

Thanks.
