Not really a slurm question, but here's my 2 cents:
FWIW, if they are true zombies (PPID 1 and kill -9 will not work) you
can only get rid of them with a reboot.
If they aren't eating much in the line of resources, you will want to
just ignore them until your next maintenance and then reboot.
Hello,
One of our slurm user's account is hung with uninterruptible processes.
These processes cannot be killed. Hence a restart is required. Is it
possible to restart the user's login environment alone? I would like to not
restart the entire login node.
Thanks!
