Can I submit a job that may be executed in different partitions

When using the parameter -p you can define the partition for your job. In my case a job can run in different partitions, so I do want to restrict my job to only a given partition. If my job can perfectly run in partitions "p1" and "p3", how can I configure the sbatch command to allow more than one partition?

The --partition option accepts a list of partition. So in your case you would write

#SBATCH --partition=p1,p3

The job will start in the partition that offers the resources the earliest.
