Syntax
...
[+|-]host.property
[+|-]host.resource.[total|used|avail]
The + or - in the expression is used to determine if the job would prefer the largest or smallest value possible. If neither is used, + is assumed.
Examples
...
Choose the fastest host:% qbsub % qbsub --hostorder "host.processor_speed" Render myscene.ma
Choose the host with the least number of worker slots in use:% qbsub % qbsub --hostorder "-host.processors.used" Render myscene.ma
Choose the fastest host with the most available worker_slots:% qbsub % qbsub --hostorder "host.processor_speed,host.processors.avail" Render myscene.ma
Notes:
Note that the system will use the hostorder specification only when initially choosing the most preferable Worker for the job itself. Once it has chosen a host, it will try to fill it up with instances from the job until the host is full. In other words, the system will not attempt to apply the hostorder to select a host for each individual instance.
