I don't have node features defined (other than for KNL nodes), so I can't test your scenario, but I do see similar as I get the error: $ srun -C "broadwell|haswell" --pty /bin/bash srun: error: Unable to allocate resources: Invalid KNL configuration (MCDRAM or NUMA option) but when using and I get: $ srun -C "broadwell&haswell" --pty /bin/bash srun: error: Unable to allocate resources: Invalid feature specification Just a rough guess as I don't have time to try and trace the code, but the ESLURM_INVALID_KNL error only occurs in the KNL plugin, whereas ESLURM_INVALID_FEATURE occurs in slurmctld code so I'm wondering if the main code tries to satisfy the constraints and (for me) fails, and so drops through to the KNL plugin to check that and that gets the last say on what the Slurm error number could be. That would imply that for some reason your node features aren't getting properly processed, either by the presence of the KNL plugin or for some other reason. It would be worth trying to disable the KNL plugin and see what effect that has. Best of luck! Chris -- Chris Samuel : http://www.csamuel.org/ : Melbourne, VIC
