Specifying Node Features (Node Properties)

Node features can be specified by placing one or more white space-delimited strings on the line for the associated host as in the following example:

server_priv/nodes:

node001 np=2 fast ia64

node002 np=4 bigmem fast ia64 smp

...

These features can be used by users to request specific nodes when submitting jobs. For example:

qsub -l nodes=1:bigmem+1:fast job.sh

This job submission will look for a node with the bigmem feature (node002) and a node with the fast feature (either node001 or node002).
