When submitting batch jobs with qsub, is there a way to exclude a certain node (by hostname)?
Something like
# this is just a pseudo command:
qsub myscript.sh --exclude computer01
解決方案
Depending on how many nodes you would like available, there are a couple of options.
You could specify by name a specific node that is acceptable:
qsub -l nodes=n006+n007
To exclude, say, one node out of a group, I would ask the administrator to assign a dummy property to all nodes but the one you want excluded. Then you can request for that property.
