Why is my Job one of Many on a Compute Node?

Info

When I run pestat, it appears that my job is one of many on a particular compute node.

Code Block
[]$ pestat -n mbl40s-001
Select only nodes in hostlist=mbl40s-001
Hostname         Partition     Node Num_CPU  CPUload  Memsize  Freemem  Joblist
                              State Use/Tot  (15min)     (MB)     (MB)  JobID(JobArrayID) User ...
mbl40s-001         mb-l40s     mix   64  96   55.62*   765525   310618  1480439 hbalantr 1440260 vvarenth

As discussed in the Intro to HPC workshop when talking about Compute Nodes this is perfectly acceptable and one of the tasks that Slurm manages.

Remember: All jobs are independent and do not affect anyone elses.
