[slurm-users] srun problem -- Can't find an address, check slurm.conf

[Scott Hazelhurst]

Thanks, Paul, yes, it does seem a likely cause, but I can’t see the problem. All machines have the same /etc/hosts file and the worker nodes are just listed one after each other. I’ve checked that the problem nodes are there — no obvious difference. I’ve checked that the IP address is correct.

Moreover, I can ping and  ssh either using the node name (e.g. n38)  or the fqdn
