Hi Vanessa, Probably not a total solution, but if you haven't already, check out the Prolog and Epilog Guide. Site- and/or user-generated epilog functions can be called at various stages of a job's life-cycle; these are where many sites/users put at least some of the functionality you desire. RequeueExit and RequeueExitHold in slurm.conf may also be useful.
