Strategies When Submitting Slurm Jobs
======================================

Due to Zurada's resource policies (see :ref:`Resource restrictions <resource_restrictions>`), users are limited to:

- 50 concurrent job submissions.
- 8 nodes maximum per user.

Depending on your resource requests, multiple jobs may run on the same node, but the 50-job submission limit must always be respected. To
maximize resource utilization while complying with these restrictions, there are multiple strategies you can follow. This section explains
the most common ones.
