[slurm-users] Can't get --reboot to work at all with slurm-23.02?

[Heinz, Michael]

I should also note that scontrol reboot works fine, but srun/salloc/sbatch hang.

Yup. RebootProgram is set to /sbin/reboot on all machines. It still just sits there and does nothing. Nothing in the logs on the compute node, nothing in the slurmctld.log on the head node.

Make sure you have configured the RebootProgram in slurm.conf, that it exists on the nodes and is executable by the user.

This is usually /sbin/reboot

Hey, all.

So I added slurmdbd to our slurm-23.02 install and made my account an admin, but when I try to do a srun with --reboot it literally just sits forever, no errors, nothing in the logs, it just sits with the node in “CF” state until I cancel the job, set the node to down and back to idle again.

I tried setting RebootProgram to a script that just writes to a file in /tmp but the program never runs.

Any suggestions?
