Feature #8017
Updated by Tom Clegg over 8 years ago
Propagate runtime constraints from Container to slurm in crunch-dispatch-slurm.
See runtime_constraints at [[Containers API]]
We should support (at least) the following cases:
* request 12 GB RAM, do not specify number of CPU cores: {"ram":12000000000}
* request 12 GB RAM and 4 CPU cores: {"ram":12000000000, "vcpus":4}
* do not propagate any constraints: {}
The Container record's runtime_constraints hash is expected to have a numeric value -(or null/missing)- (or null/missing) for each element -- never a range of acceptable values like the ContainerRequest examples.
Every Container record is guaranteed to have a value for "ram" and "vcpus" by the time it's eligible for dispatch.
