Re: [slurm-users] unable to Hold and release the job using scontrol
Yep, job 28 is already running. If you want it to be on hold to start, use 'sbatch -h test.sh' and it will start out in a hold state.

It looks like you're trying to hold a running job, which isn't possible. I see from the Slurm FAQ that you should be able to use "scontrol requeuehold" for what you are trying to achieve. https://slurm.schedmd.com/faq.html#req # Slurm supports requeuing jobs in a hold state with the command: # # scontrol requeuehold job_id # # The job can be in state RUNNING, SUSPENDED, COMPLETED or FAILED before # being requeued.
