</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">We are setting TmpFS=/scratchLocal in /etc/slurm/slurm.conf on nodes and controller. However $TMPDIR value seems to be /tmp not /scratchLocal. As a result users are writing to /tmp which we do not want.<br>
<br>
We are not setting $TMPDIR anywhere else such as /etc/profile.d nor do users have it defined in their ~/.bashrc or ~/.bash_profile. <o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">We do not see any error messages anywhere which could indicate why the default value of /tmp overrides our value of of TmpFS. <o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">As I understand prolog scripts can change this value though, if that's the case, then what's the purpose of setting TmpFS in /etc/slurm/slurm.conf?<o:p></o:p></p>
