Question
Can EGO consumer policies replace MultiCluster lease mode?
Answer Conceptually, both define resource borrowing and lending policies. However,
current EGO consumer policies can only work with slot resources within one EGO
cluster. MultiCluster lease mode supports other load indices and external resources
between multiple clusters. If you are using MultiCluster lease mode to share only
slot resources between clusters, and you are able to merge those clusters into a single
cluster, you should be able to use EGO consumer policy and submit jobs to
EGO-enabled SLA scheduling to achieve the same goal.
