How would you schedule a job (let's say using srun) to work on these nodes? Of course this would be interesting in a dynamic case, too (assuming that the database is downloaded to nodes during job execution), but for now I would be happy with a static solution (where it is okay to store a value before that says something like "hasDatabase=1" on nodes.
You could use features for that? A feature can be assigned to nodes and you can request nodes with specific feature for a job: In slurm.conf: NodeName=node001 CPUs=1 Feature=hasdatabase ... And for your jobs: sbatch --constraint=hasdatabase ... Ward
