Requesting floating resources
When floating resources have been set up inside Moab, they can be requested in the same way as generic resources. Moab will automatically understand that these resources are floating and will schedule the job accordingly. (See "Floating Generic Resources" in the Moab Workload Manager Administrator Guide for details on configuration within Moab.)
Example 2-5: Floating
This job will run on any node when there are enough floating resources available.
> qsub -l other=matlab /home/user/script.sh
This can also be requested at the time of job submission using the -W x=GRES:matlab flag.
