[slurm-users] How to turn off core specialization?

[Taras Shapovalov]

Hi Dave,

I can confirm that CoreSpecCount can not be reset to 0 once it is set >0
(at least for FastSchedule>0). As a workaround for this bug you can try to
stop slurmctld, remove node_state file and start slurmctld again.

Best regards,

Taras
