Thank you for the recommendation. Will try that out. Unfortunately the on-prem nodes cannot reach the head node via the public IP

Theoretically anyway- I haven't run a config like that and I'm not sure how the controller will react to such a configuration (i.e. getting slurm traffic on both interfaces). If the on-prem nodes can reach the public IP address of the controller it may be simpler to use only the public IP for the controller, but I don't know how your routing is set up.

It is currently configured with the private cluster network address that the on-prem nodes use to contact it. The nodes in the cloud would contact the head node via its public IP address. How can I configure Slurm so that both IPs are recognized as the head node? -Sajesh-
