Hola, Apparently (I was on holiday - of course) we experienced a mini email server melt because of a confluence of two events.
Triggered by a user making a spelling mistake in their own email address, this was compounded by the fact that slurm creates a from address for the outgoing email in the format of <SlurmUser>@<hostname -f> on the slurmctld server. Since that user doesn't exist in our email service - Exchange Server, and our slurmctld server isn't a valid proxy, there were errors upon errors. Is there any way to set that from address to something more generic (ad...@unix.domain.tld) in slurm.conf? I can't see anything obvious in slurm.conf nor in the documentation, but I may have missed it. cheers L. ------ "The antidote to apocalypticism is *apocalyptic civics*. Apocalyptic civics is the insistence that we cannot ignore the truth, nor should we panic about it. It is a shared consciousness that our institutions have failed and our ecosystem is collapsing, yet we are still here — and we are creative agents who can shape our destinies. Apocalyptic civics is the conviction that the only way out is through, and the only way through is together. " *Greg Bloom* @greggish https://twitter.com/greggish/status/873177525903609857
