Hi,
I am using the slurmibtopology tool to generate the topology.conf file from the cluster at my institute which gives me a file with around 400 nodes. I need a topology file with a larger no of nodes for further use. Is there anyway of generating a synthetic topology file , or any source where I could get a topology file with a larger no of nodes.

The Slurm topology.conf file *must* match exactly the actual set of compute nodes. You should not mess with topology.conf on any Slurm node because you will confuse Slurm and potentially create errors. The topology.conf file must be identical on all Slurm nodes.

You can play with your own topology file, as long as you don't copy it to any Slurm node. See "man topology.conf" for the format.
