Remove the
exclusive
directive from the batch files for all NERSC machines.The reason we want to do this:
a) no longer needed (in fact default)
b) it allows a user to use
--qos shared
when desired (and there is no flag to turn off exclusive)Note that using
-q shared or --qos shared
allows a job to share resources with other jobs on the node.The advantage is that jobs using shared are not charged as much as a full node.
There will be no performance impact.
