<p>Hi there,<br>
</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>I run a small SLURM cluster that serves both bigmem applications as well as parallelizing data reduction pipelines.<br>
</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>I'm interested in allowing users to write interim files to shared memory in /dev/shm/$USER/$SLURM_JOBID but I don't know how to tell slurm to include those files in the given job's memory consumption, k​illing said job if its application memory + shared
 memory use exceeds the allocated value.<br>
</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Can anyone advise how I would go about doing this?<br>
</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Many thanks,<br>
</p>
<p>   Sam<br>
