- PP-725: new "keep <select>" option for "pbs_release_nodes"
Overview
This is to enhance the "node ramp down" feature, by introducing a new option "-k <node count>" ("k" for "keep") to the pbs command "pbs_release_nodes". This will allow users or admins to retain some of the sister nodes (exec_host), while performing node ramp down operation. The number of sister nodes to be kept is specified by the argument to this new option.
