I'd strongly suggest using cgroups in your Slurm config to ensure that
processes are corralled and tracked correctly.

You can use pam_slurm_adopt from the contrib directory to capture
inbound SSH sessions into a running job on the node (and deny access to
people who don't).

Then Slurm should take care of everything for you without needing an
epilog.

Hope this helps!
