Cleanest way to enable auto_queues (or similar attributes) with ood-ansible

[Trigil]

Hello!

I'm currently looking into how to enable bc_desktop auto_queues attribute from the ansible role. I guess auto_accounts and auto_qos work the same way.

If I am not mistaken, this should allow the user to select a slurm partition (or account or qos) directly from a list, limited to what they have access to, when they want to run a remote desktop?

If so, can these options be activated directly in the cluster.yml, in the bc_desktop part?

Thanks for your help!

You don't have to do anything to enable them, just use them in the form.yml files like the one below.

That said - you should also enable bc_dynamic_js so the lists that are populated are dynamic (i.e., hide & show the appropriate fields).

It works! I was using them in the wrong part of the cluster.yml (in attributes and not in form), thank you! :)
