Joseph,

You will likely get many perspectives on this. I disable swap completely on our compute nodes. I can be draconian that way. For the workflow supported, this works and is a good thing.
Other workflows may benefit from swap.

Dear All,

Good morning

I do have a 4 node SLURM instance up and running.

Like to know if I disable the SWAP memory, will it effect the SLURM performance

Is SWAP a mandatory requirement, I have each node more RAM, if my phsicall RAM is more, is there any need for the SWAP

thanks

Joseph John
