[slurm-users] GPU / cgroup challenges

[Kevin Manalo]

Chris,

Thanks for the correction there, that /dev/nvidia* isn’t needed in [cgroup_allowed_devices_file.conf] for constraining GPU devices.

No, I think you're right there, we don't have them listed and cgroups
constrains it correctly (nvidia-smi says no devices when you don't
request any GPUs).

Which version of Slurm are you on?

Chris
