Hi Brian
The nodes work with slurm without any issues till I try the "--reboot"
option.
I can successfully allocate the nodes or any other slurm related operation

That's the problem, they are not been rebooted. I'm monitoring the nodes

sinfo from the nodes works without issue before and after using "--reboot"
slurmd is up
