[slurm-users] Seff error with Slurm-18.08.1

[Miguel A. Sánchez]

Hi and thanks for all your answers and sorry for the delay in my answer.
Yesterday I have installed in the controller machine the Slurm-18.08.3
to check if with this last release the Seff command is working fine. The
behavior has improve but I still receive a error message:


# /usr/local/slurm-18.08.3/bin/seff 1694112
*Use of uninitialized value $lmem in numeric lt (<) at
/usr/local/slurm-18.08.3/bin/seff line 130, <DATA> line 624.*

And due to this problem,  any job shows me as memory utilized the value
of 0.00 MB.


With slurm-17.11.1 is working fine:
