is there any way to listen to job state changes of slurm 23.x or newer? I’d like to kind of subscribe to job state changes instead of polling for job states. Adding this feature to slurm accounting DB seems to be last option right now, although I’d like to avoid it.

My 2 cents: When users submit jobs, they can ask for mail to be sent for a number of job events:

sbatch --mail-type=<type>

I wonder what your needs for job states really are?
