[slurm-users] About x11 support

[Mahmood Naderan]

Hi,
Is there any update about native support of x11 in slurm v18?
Prior to that, I used spank-x11 where an rpm file was installed on the
nodes to support x11.
Now that I removed the rpm, I can not use srun with x11 support.

[mahmood at rocks7 ~]$ srun --nodelist=rocks7 -n 1 -c 4 --mem=4G --x11 -A y8
-p RUBY xclock
srun: error: Cannot forward to local display. Can only use X11 forwarding
with network displays.
[mahmood at rocks7 ~]$ scontrol show node | grep rocks7
NodeName=rocks7 Arch=x86_64 CoresPerSocket=1
   NodeAddr=10.1.1.1 NodeHostName=rocks7 Version=18.08


However, xclock is fine when it is run via terminal.

Regards,
Mahmood
