I'm also in favor of epilog scripts, though it really depends on what
you are eventually trying to achieve.
Also, I'm not sure I understand what you meant by the slurm job
sleeping for 6 seconds and rebooting. You did want it to reboot, no?
The 4 "missing" seconds might be the time difference betw
Seems like there are better approaches.
In this situation, I would use an epilogue script and give sudo access
to the script. Check out https://slurm.schedmd.com/prolog_epilog.html
That would likely be much easier and fit into the methodology slurm uses.

I think you are trying to send a signal to another process. Could this be
'Hey - the job has finished and there is a new file for you to process'
If that is so, there may be better ways to do this. If you ha

Hi,
I'm not sure how slurm/spank handles child processes but this might be
intentional. So there might be some issues if this were to work.
You can try instead of calling system(), to use fork() + exec(). If
that still doesn't work, try calling setsid() before the exec(). I can
