[slurm-users] cleanup script after timeout

[Juergen Salk]

Hi Brian,

can you maybe elaborate on how exactly you verified that your epilog 
does not run when a job exceeds it's walltime limit? Does it run when 
the jobs end normally or when a running job is cancelled by the user?

I am asking because in our environment the epilog also runs when a job 
hits the walltime limit or is cancelled and I think this is actually 
how it is supposed to work.

Best regards
Jürgen
