Greetings! I’ve spent only a few days of experience playing with slurm, so apologies if I’m missing something obvious, but I couldn’t find a good way to query nodes automatically to generate NodeName lines in detail.
I saw the "slurm -C” option, which comes *really* close, but some of the fields it includes are not compatible. E.g.: # slurmd -C NodeName=devel-comp1 CPUs=2 Boards=1 SocketsPerBoard=2 CoresPerSocket=1 ThreadsPerCore=1 RealMemory=5845 TmpDisk=16260 But slurm doesn’t like it when copied directly into the conf: # service slurm restart scontrol: error: NodeNames=devel-comp1 CPUs=# or Procs=# with Boards=# is invalid and is ignored. The problem is, we have thousands of heterogeneous nodes, it’s almost impossible to set a default or enter each different architecture manually. So we *really* need a way to collect the specs from nodes and construct the configuration dynamically. Thanks a lot! -Mehmet
