try things on the test cluster, and then we gather those changes and make a change to the production cluster. We're doing that through two different repos, but we'd like to have a single repo to make the transition from testing configs to publishing them
more seamless. The problem is, of course, that the test cluster and production clusters have different cluster names, as well as different nodes within them.</span></div>

the clustername line will be different for them both.

not know what the "ClusterName" was. I think that means that either it doesn't work for anything other than slurm.conf, or that the clustername will have to be defined in gres.conf as well?</span></li></ul>
