Thanks Patrick!  The "systemctl edit" command seems to me to be useful 
on a single system.  The man-page says "Note that this command cannot be 
used to remotely edit units..."

The systemctl edit seems to create a file override.conf in 
/etc/systemd/system/slurmd.service.d/

IMHO, when you have lots of nodes it seems far simpler to distribute (by 
rsync, for example) a file 
/etc/systemd/system/slurmd.service.d/core_limit.conf as proposed by 
Michael Jennings.
