sdiag command might help you debug this issue or performance in general.Hi Brian,
Thank you very much! We will try it.
Another thing we have noticed is a massive decrease of slurmctld performance. Had to 4x VM’s memory and CPU cores as compared to 24.11, so that 25.05 would run without freezing.
Does everyone have this , or we did misconfigure some settings of the new RPC connection manager?

Grigory,
You likely need to add your CA to the nodes and update. Under Ubuntu, you would:
This should then create a pem file in /etc/ssl/certs for that CA and you can then trust certs signed by it.
You will need to do that on all your systems that need to trust your CA.

Looks like PMIx cannot talk to their peers now ?There was no specific configuration for the certgen plugin, because SLURM documentation seems to say it is optional(?).I wonder what do we miss here to have SLURM 25.05 in with TLS enabled and PMIx working?
