happening is that there?s no SLURM_JOBID (my speculation since I don?t have perms to use ?no-alloc) is set, but SLURM_NODELIST may be set, so its confusing ORTE.</span><br style="caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; text-decoration: none;" class="">

<div class="">Howard,</div>

<div class="">I believe you are correct. Once I set SLURM_JOBID then ORTE starts functioning again with the --no-alloc option. Since you asked (and for completeness) I include the list of environment variables that were different with/without --no-alloc below,
but my tests show that jobid seems to be the magic one, as you predicted.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">I guess I will manufacture an artificial job id for our “--no-alloc” runs, but if anyone is aware of any dangers lurking in the shadows from that approach I would be interested.</div>

<div class="">Thanks for the guidance ... impressive that you could identify the issue so quickly!</div>
