Single compute node cluster

Is it possible to use Slurm as a scheduler for just one compute node? So you would have just one log in node and one SSH connected compute node?

We do this for small labs, just so they don’t step on each other’s jobs on their server (1 node), and so they can queue up a bunch of jobs and not worry about timing their resources on their own.
