[slurm-users] slurm_update error: Invalid node state specified

[Sushil Mishra]

Dear all,

I am stuck with scontrol not recognizing the state keywords. I wonder if
someone can point me to the possible cause of the error.  I
restarted slurmd a few times, and it didn't help.

[sushil@fucose ~]$ sinfo
PARTITION AVAIL  TIMELIMIT  NODES  STATE NODELIST
LocalQ*      up   infinite      1  inval fucose

[sushil@fucose ~]$ sinfo -R

cg                   sushil    2022-10-10T18:11:27 fucose

[sushil@fucose ~]$ sudo scontrol update NodeName=fucose state=RESUME
[sudo] password for sushil:
slurm_update error: Invalid node state specified

[sushil@fucose ~]$ squeue

Best,
