...Theqspoolscript will feed your job scripts onto the queue as space becomes available.python3-mqspool*.slurm.shYou can also provide job names via stdin, which is useful for very large job batches.find.-maxdepth1-name'*.slurm.sh'|python3-mqspoolTheqspoolscript creates a slurm job that submits your job scripts.
When queue capacity fills, thisqspooljob will schedule a follow-up job to submit any remaining job scripts.
This process continues until all job scripts have been submitted.usage: qspool.py [-h] [--payload-job-script-paths-infile PAYLOAD_JOB_SCRIPT_PATHS_INFILE] [--job-log-path JOB_LOG_PATH] [--job-script-cc-path JOB_SCRIPT_CC_PATH]

positional arguments:
  payload_job_script_paths
                        What scripts to spool onto slurm queue? (default: None)

options:

  --payload-job-script-paths-infile PAYLOAD_JOB_SCRIPT_PATHS_INFILE
                        Where to read script paths to spool onto slurm queue? (default: <_io.TextIOWrapper name='<stdin>' mode='r' encoding='utf-8'>)
  --job-log-path JOB_LOG_PATH
                        Where should logs for qspool jobs be written? (default: ~/slurm_job_log/)
  --job-script-cc-path JOB_SCRIPT_CC_PATH
                        Where should copies of submitted job scripts be kept? (default: ~/slurm_job_script_cc/)
  --queue-capacity QUEUE_CAPACITY
                        How many jobs can be running or waiting at once? (default: 1000)

                        What title should be included in qspooler job names?

python3-mqspool[ARGS]qspoolhas zero dependencies, so no setup or maintenance is required to use it.
Compatible all the way back to Python 3.6, so it will work on your cluster's ancient Python install.How it Worksqspool
  * read contents of target slurm scripts
  * instantiate qspooler job script w/ target slurm scripts embedded
  * submit qspooler job script to slurm queue⬇️ ⬇️ ⬇️qspooler job 1
  * submit embedded target slurm scripts one by one until queue is almost full
  * instantiate qspooler job script w/ remaining target slurm scripts embedded
  * submit qspooler job script to slurm queue⬇️ ⬇️ ⬇️qspooler job 2
  * submit embedded target slurm scripts one by one until queue is almost full
  * instantiate qspooler job script w/ remaining target slurm scripts embedded
  * submit qspooler job script to slurm queue...qspooler job n
  * submit embedded target slurm scripts one by one
  * no embedded target slurm scripts remain
  * exitRelated Softwareroll_quses a similar approach to solve this problem.roll_qdiffers in implementation strategy.roll_qtracks submission progress via an index variable in a file associated with a job batch.qspoolembeds jobs in the submission worker script itself.
