Major point: Is there a reason for not using the elements from the Usage Record v1.0 specification in there?
I went back and reviewed the copy of the UR spec I've been carrying about for the last month! The need is to report a node status in terms of information to drive scheduling. Here used and free memory/processors are important. I could not see a way of capturing all that information from UR. UR is also focused on the absolute resource used by a job - as opposed to a node's resources.
Am I missing something here?
Oops, I must have misread things there. How embarrassing for me! In that case, I think I'll have to amend my suggestion to request that the element names make it very clear that these are "job-independent per node totals" or something like that. Don't want anyone else making the mistake I did. :-) Donal.
