Hello,
We are a school who don't have developers and we are planning to use Qube to manage our render farm which we use for 3dsmax and Maya. We are trying to share the resources of the render farm between different student's projects.
For example, let's say that our render farm has 24 worker hosts. We would like that, if two students (which we can either authenticated by IP address or Windows login) submit jobs, the job of student A will get half of the workers (12 workers) and the job of student B will get the other 12 workers. We would also like that if a third student C submits a job, then his job gets a third of the render farm (8 workers) and the jobs of students A et B are automatically reduced to 8 workers each.
Is there a simple way to achieve this automatically? (i.e. without requiring the students to type a priority or a cluster name when submitting the job, because they might cheat on that)
We also have another situation we would like to handle, it's when a student is late for his project, we would like to be able to make Qube always treats his jobs as top priority, regardless of already existing jobs. Is that possible?
Thank you
