I think we need to understand more about your pool. You have 10 servers, 365 jobs, so obviously each server on average must run 3 or 4 jobs. You mean you want only 1 job to run at a time, on each machine? How many cores ("slots", in HTC) does each server have? Assuming each server has multiple cores (slots), an easy way to have only 1 job run at a time is to tell HTC that each machine has only 1 slot, though in fact they have more.

I have a pool of 10 servers and I will be submitting 365 jobs. I don't want a server to host more than one of my job. However, I don't want to claim the entire machine since I want my other colleagues to use the machines also.

Is there a way to do this?

Sorry for being vague. Each server has 8 cores. There are other users submitting jobs also but for a particular job type, I would like to only run a single process on the server while other 7 cores are free for user users. In other words, I don't want to schedule more than 1 process on the server because it consumes too much network while other jobs dont.
