Hi everyone, I'm conducting some tests. I've just set up SLURM on the head node and haven't added any compute nodes yet. I'm trying to test it to ensure it's working, but I'm encountering an error: 'Nodes required for the job are DOWN, DRAINED, or reserved for jobs in higher priority partitions.

I will take any advice to guide me in the proper direction, thank you!
