Actual exam question for NVIDIA's NCP-AIO exam
Question #: 17
Topic #: 1
Your cluster users are complaining about long wait times for interactive jobs. You suspect the default backfill scheduler is not effectively utilizing available resources for these smaller, shorter jobs. What can you do to improve the scheduling of interactive jobs, considering backfill limitations?

Suggested Answer: C Vote an answer

Creating a separate partition with a higher priority and shorter time limit for interactive jobs is the most effective solution. This allows the scheduler to quickly allocate resources to these jobs without significantly impacting larger, longer-running batch jobs.
