If we just flip on AccountingStorageEnforce=limits,qos,(tried adding safe

Hi
It might be useful to see the configuration of the partition and how the
QOS is set up... but at first blush I suspect you may need to set OverPartQOS
(https://slurm.schedmd.com/resource_limits.html)
to get the QOS limit to take precedence over the limit in the partition.
However, the "reason" should be different if that were the case.
Look at that, maybe send the QOS and partition config.

Hey slurm gurus. We have been trying to enable slurm QOS on a cray system
here off and on for quite a while but can never get it working. Every time we
try to enable QOS we disrupt the cluster and users and have to fall back. I'm
not sure what we are doing
wrong. We run a pretty open system here since we are a research group but
there are time where we need to let a user run a job to exceed a partition
limit. In lieu of using QOs the only other way we have figured out how to do
this is create a new partition
and push out the modified slurm.conf. It's a hassle.
I'm not sure what information is needed exactly to troubleshoot this but I
understand to enable QOS we need to enable this line in slurm.conf
AccountingStorageEnforce=limits,qos
Every time we attempt this no one can submit a job, slurm says waiting on
resources I believe.
We have accounting enabled and everyone is a member of the default qos
group "normal".
