I'm afraid that restarting slurmctld will interrupt current tasks, so
I'm still waiting for them to finish.

There should be no problem in restarting slurmctld. It will only take a few seconds, and it will not disturb slurmd daemons on compute nodes or the running jobs, but you must check SlurmctldTimeout in slurm.conf by:

# scontrol show config | grep Timeout

Of course, you must first synchronize the slurm.conf file to all nodes in the cluster.

Perhaps my Wiki page about upgrading slurmctld will give you some further information:
