Hi Developers, I have a couple of related observations with a development request and a bug fix request.
When trying to update the memory request of a queued job with: scontrol update JobId=xxx MinMemoryNode=yyy I found I could not specify memory using say 128G or 128GB (even though scontrol show job uses this form). Could that please be supported in the future? Instead I tried to be smart and ran: scontrol update JobId=xxx MinMemoryNode=$(( 128 * 1024 * 1024 )) and slurm crashed with no info logged. I understand I had the units wrong and requested 128TB... and using $(( 128 * 1024 )) works as I wanted and requests 128GB, however slurm crashing in response to such a request is clearly a bug to be fixed. We are running: slurm 14.03.0 Regards, Gareth
