Try using "nodename=node003" in the slurm.conf on your nodes.
Also, make sure the slurm.conf on the nodes is the same as on the head.
Somewhere in there, you have "node=node003" (as well as the other nodes
names).
That may even do it, as they may be trying to register generically, so
their configs are not getting matched to the specific info in your main
config

previously:
our problem here is that the configuration for the nodes in
question have an incorrect amount of memory set for them. Looks
like you have it set in bytes instead of megabytes
In your slurm.conf you should look at the RealMemory setting:
RealMemory
Size of real memory on the node in megabytes (e.g. "2048"). The
default value is 1.
I would suggest RealMemory=191879 , where I suspect you have
RealMemory=196489092
Now the slurmctld logs show this:
