[slurm-users] big increase of MaxStepCount?

[John R Anderson]

hello,
 a user has requested that we set MaxStepCount to "unlimited" or 16million to accommodate some of their desired workflows. i searched around for details about this parameter & don't see alot, and i reviewed  https://bugs.schedmd.com/show_bug.cgi?id=5722

any thoughts on this? can this successfully be applied to a partition or individual nodes only? i wonder about log files exploding or worse...

thanks!
