Quality of Service (QOS)

Quality of Service (QoS) is used to limite the characteristics that a job can have.

Default QOS per partition

For every partition (fct, gpu, etc), there is a Quality of Service with different defined parameters like MaxJobs, MaxSubmitJobs. This parameters act on all the jobs submitted by all user's on that partition. To see the the default QOS for a specific partition run the below scontrol command:
