Hi, Normally updating slutm.conf across cluster & scontrol reconfigure should work.

We use the command: scontrol update PartitionName=partition01 Nodes=nd[001-200] and modify slurm.conf at the same time to match. But when I try to just modify slurm.conf and restart the process "slurmctld". The command "scontrol show PartitionName=partition01" still show the old list of nodes. Even after I reboot the slurmctld server completely. I don't know where the cached version of the list is or how it keeps it. Is there a some slurm.conf configuration that dictated that behavior? Any hints? Richard
