Update, So finally problem solved. In case someone runs into something similar, the issue was that there were file remains in /var/spool/slurmd/ from the previous ubuntu version (22.04), for some reason that made slurmd behave like that. So deleting all those files inside solved the problem!

Dear community, I am having a strange issue I have been unable to find the cause. Last week I did a full update on the cluster, which is composed of the master node, and two compute nodes (nodeGPU01 -> DGXA100 and nodeGPU02 -> custom GPU server). After the update, I got
- master node ended up with Ubuntu 24.04,
- nodeGPU01 with latest DGX OS (still Ubuntu 22.04)
- nodeGPU02 with Ubuntu 24.04 LTS.
- Launching jobs from master choosing the partitions of nodeGPU01
works perfectly.
- Launching jobs from master choosing the partition of nodeGPU02
stopped working (hangs).
The nodeGPU02 (Ubuntu 24) is no longer processing jobs successfully, while the other nodeGPU01 works perfectly even when the master has Ubuntu 24. Any help is welcome, I have tried many things and had no success in finding the cause of this. Please let me know if you need more information. Many thanks in advance.
This is the initial `slurmd` log of the problematic node (nodeGPU02), notice the messages in yellow
