Hmm..., I'm a bit dazzled, seems to be ok as far as I can tell. Did you try to restart slurmctld? I had a case, where users could not submit to the default partition anymore, since SLURM told them (if I remember right) wrong account/partition combination or something like that. My first suspic

Hello Chris, I’ve submitted the bug report together with a patch. We don’t have a support contract but I suppose they’ll at least read it ;) The code is identical for 18.08.x and 19.05.x, it’s just a different offset. Kind regards, Lech > Am 02.04.2019 um 15:18 schrieb Ole Holm Nielsen : > > H

Hi Lech, Thanks for submitting the patch to SchedMD: https://bugs.schedmd.com/show_bug.cgi?id=6796 SchedMD already decided that they won't fix the problem: Thank you for the submission, but I will not be merging this upstream at this time. Support for the 17.11 release is nearly ended, and

Hi Lech, Maybe you could add your arguments to the bug report https://bugs.schedmd.com/show_bug.cgi?id=6796 hoping that SchedMD may be convinced that this is a useful patch for future versions of Slurm, also for MySQL/MariaDB versions 5.5 and newer. Best regards, Ole On 4/3/19 1:17 PM, Lec

Hi Ole, since we aren’t using RHEL7/CentOS7 we haven’t tested it with mysql 5.5 and it’d probably carry more weight if someone running that OS would test it and add an appropriate comment. You are welcome to try it out. That being said, the release notes explicitly mention that versions 5.1 and

the dev stated that they’d rather keep that warning than fixing the issue, so I’m not sure if that’ll be enough to convince them. Anyone else as disappointed by this as I am? I get that it's too late to add something like this to 17.11 or 18.08, but it seems like SchedMD isn't even interested i

Thanks for your suggestions Marcus. I have restarted services, and also been messing with various parameters (probably more than I should). Nothing seems to help. Not ready to upgrade to Slurm 18, so guess I'll have to live with it... Best, Randy On Wed, Apr 3, 2019 at 1:50 AM Marcus Wagner w
