Multiple Queues
Typically a batch system will have multiple queues, each being
appropriate for a different type of jobs.
For example
- Homogeneous cluster which is primarily used to serviceparallel jobs, - Powerful server for CPU intensive jobs, - Jobs that need a rapid turnaround.
The number of possible queue configurations is large and will
depend on the typical throughput of jobs on the system being used.
