manually running it through sudo slurmdbd -D /path/to/conf is very quick on my fresh install trying to start the slurmdbd through systemctl take 3 minutes and then crashes and fail Is there an alternative to systemctl to start the slurmdbd in the background ? But most importantly I wanted to know why it takes so long through systemctl. Maybe I can increase the timeout limit ?

Slurm version 24.05.0 is now available
by Marshall Garey 31 May '24

31 May '24

We are pleased to announce the availability of Slurm 24.05.0. To highlight some new features in 24.05: - Isolated Job Step management. Enabled on a job-by-job basis with the --stepmgr option, or globally through SlurmctldParameters=enable_stepmgr. - Federation - Allow for client command operation while SlurmDBD is unavailable. - New MaxTRESRunMinsPerAccount and MaxTRESRunMinsPerUser QOS limits. - New USER_DELETE reservation flag. - New Flags=rebootless option on Features for node_features/helpers which indicates the given feature can be enabled without rebooting the node. - Cloud power management options: New "max_powered_nodes=<limit>" option in SlurmctldParamters, and new SuspendExcNodes=<nodes>:<count> syntax allowing for <count> nodes out of a given node list to be excluded. - StdIn/StdOut/StdErr now stored in SlurmDBD accounting records for batch jobs. - New switch/nvidia_imex plugin for IMEX channel management on NVIDIA systems. - New RestrictedCoresPerGPU option at the Node level, designed to ensure GPU workloads always have access to a certain number of CPUs even when nodes are running non-GPU workloads concurrently. The Slurm documentation has also been updated to the 24.05 release. (Older versions can be found in the archive, linked from the main documentation page.) Slurm can be downloaded from https://www.schedmd.com/downloads.php . -- Marshall Garey Release Management, Support, and Development SchedMD LLC - Commercial Slurm Development and Support

Executing srun -n X where X is greater than total CPU in entire cluster
by Dan Healy 30 May '24

30 May '24

Hi there, SLURM community, I swear I've done this before, but now it's failing on a new cluster I'm deploying. We have 6 compute nodes with 64 cpu each (384 CPU total). When I run `srun -n 500 hostname`, the task gets queued since there's not 500 available CPU. Wasn't there an option that allows for this to be run where the first 384 tasks execute, and then the remaining execute when resources free up? Here's my conf: # Slurm Cgroup Configs used on controllers and workersslurm_cgroup_config: CgroupAutomount: yes ConstrainCores: yes ConstrainRAMSpace: yes ConstrainSwapSpace: yes ConstrainDevices: yes# Slurm conf file settingsslurm_config: AccountingStorageType: "accounting_storage/slurmdbd" AccountingStorageEnforce: "limits" AuthAltTypes: "auth/jwt" ClusterName: "cluster" AccountingStorageHost : "{{ hostvars[groups['controller'][0]].ansible_hostname }}" DefMemPerCPU: 1024 InactiveLimit: 120 JobAcctGatherType: "jobacct_gather/cgroup" JobCompType: "jobcomp/none" MailProg: "/usr/bin/mail" MaxArraySize: 40000 MaxJobCount: 100000 MinJobAge: 3600 ProctrackType: "proctrack/cgroup" ReturnToService: 2 SelectType: "select/cons_tres" SelectTypeParameters: "CR_Core_Memory" SlurmctldTimeout: 30 SlurmctldLogFile: "/var/log/slurm/slurmctld.log" SlurmdLogFile: "/var/log/slurm/slurmd.log" SlurmdSpoolDir: "/var/spool/slurm/d" SlurmUser: "{{ slurm_user.name }}" SrunPortRange: "60000-61000" StateSaveLocation: "/var/spool/slurm/ctld" TaskPlugin: "task/affinity,task/cgroup" UnkillableStepTimeout: 120 -- Thanks, Daniel Healy

Jobs showing running but not running

Hi All, I'm managing a cluster with Slurm, consisting of 4 nodes. One of the compute nodes appears to be experiencing issues. While the front node's 'squeue' command indicates that jobs are running, upon connecting to the problematic node, I observe no active processes and GPUs are not being utilized.

dynamical configuration || meta configuration mgmt
by Heckes, Frank 30 May '24

30 May '24

Hello all, I’m sorry if this has been asked and answered before, but I couldn’t find anything related. Does anyone know whether a framework of sorts exists that allow to change certain SLURM configuration parameters provided some conditions in the batch system’s state are detected and of course are revert if the state became the old one again? (To be more concrete: We like to raise or unset maxjobPU to run as much small jobs as possible to allocate all nodes as soon as certain threshold of free nodes are available and of course some other scenarios) Many thanks in advance.

Configuring sacct to report state=OUT_OF_MEMORY
by Lee 29 May '24

29 May '24

Hello, *Background :* I am working on a small cluster that is managed by Base Command Manager v10.0 using Slurm 23.02.7 with Ubuntu 22.04.2. I have a small testing script that simply consumes memory and processors. I run my test script, it consumes more memory than allocated by Slurm and as expected it gets killed by OOM killer. In /var/log/slurmd, I see entries like : [2024-05-29T08:53:04.975] Launching batch job 65 for UID 1001 [2024-05-29T08:53:05.016] [65.batch] task/cgroup: _memcg_initialize: job: alloc=10868MB mem.limit=10868MB memsw.limit=10868MB job_swappiness=1 [2024-05-29T08:53:05.016] [65.batch] task/cgroup: _memcg_initialize: step: alloc=10868MB mem.limit=10868MB memsw.limit=10868MB job_swappiness=1 [2024-05-29T08:53:19.530] [65.batch] task/cgroup: task_cgroup_memory_check_oom: StepId=65.batch hit memory+swap limit at least once during execution. This may or may not result in some failure.

sbatch problem

Hello, My name is Mihai and a have an issue with a small GPU cluster manage with slurm 22.05.11. I got 2 different output when I'm trying to find out the name of the nodes(one correct and one wrong). The script is: #!/bin/bash #SBATCH --job-name=test #SBATCH --output=/data/mihai/res.txt #SBATCH --partition=eli #SBATCH --nodes=2 srun echo Running on host: $(hostname) srun hostname srun sleep 15 And the output look like this: cat res.txt Running on host: mihai-x8640 Running on host: mihai-x8640 mihaigpu2 mihai-x8640 As you can see the output of the command 'srun echo Running on host: $(hostname)' is the same, as the jobs was running twice on the same node, while command 'srun hostname' it's giving me the correct output. Do you have any idea why the outputs of the 2 commands are different? Thank you, Mihai

slurmdbd archive format
by O'Neal, Doug (NIH/NCI) [C] 29 May '24

29 May '24

My organization needs to access historic job information records for metric reporting and resource forecasting. slurmdbd is archiving only the job information, which should be sufficient for our numbers, but is using the default archive script. In retrospect, this data should have been migrated to a secondary MariaDB instance, but that train has passed. The format of the archive files is not well documented. Does anyone have a program (python/C/whatever) that will read a job_table_archive file and decode it into a parsable structure?
