You should be able to do this with out losing any jobs (at least I've
never lost any on any version of Slurm I have run). I do it all the
time in our environment (about once a day) as our slurm.conf is in flux
quite a bit. It should always preserve the running and pending state.
The only issue I have ever seen where this becomes a problem is in
fringe cases during major version upgrades, even then it is rare.

Hello,
Some modifications to the slurm.conf require me to restart the slurmd
daemons on all nodes. Is there a way to do this without loosing any
running jobs (and not having to drain the cluster)?
Thanks,
