Yep, job 28 is already running.
If you want it to be on hold to start, use 'sbatch -h test.sh' and it
will start out in a hold state.

It looks like you're trying to hold a running job, which isn't possible.
I see from the Slurm FAQ that you should be able to use "scontrol requeuehold"
for what you are trying to achieve.
https://slurm.schedmd.com/faq.html#req
# Slurm supports requeuing jobs in a hold state with the command:
#
# scontrol requeuehold job_id
#
# The job can be in state RUNNING, SUSPENDED, COMPLETED or FAILED before
# being requeued.
Best of luck,
Chris
