Hi Jason,
we intend to have a maximum wallclock time of 5 days. We chose this, to have
the possibility to do a timely maintenance without disturbing and killing the
users jobs. Yet we see that some users and / or codes need a longer runtime.
That is why we set the maxtime for the partitions to

Yes I hadn't considered that! Thanks for the tip, Michael I shall do that.

Hi All
Hope you are all keeping well in these difficult times.
I have setup a small Slurm cluster of 8 compute nodes (4 x 1-core CPUs, 16GB
RAM) without scheduling or accounting as it isn't really needed.
I'm just looking for confirmation it's configured correctly to allow the
controller to 's
Depending on the users who will be on this cluster, I'd probably adjust the
partition to have a defined, non-infinite MaxTime, and maybe a lower
DefaultTime. Otherwise, it would be very easy for someone to start a job that
reserves all cores until the nodes get rebooted, since all they have to d
