Synopsis
supervisor_preempt_policy = method
The preemption pre-emption method the Supervisor will use. Method can be either disabled, passive, or aggressive.
The Supervisor during its preemption pre-emption routine will determine if the system should kill a job and replace it. However, the administrator is given the flexibility to determine if they want their jobs to die instantly, or be notified that they should shut down. This policy can also be controlled via a scripted policy as well.
