I don’t have any direct advice off-hand, but I figure I will try to help steer 
the conversation in the right direction for figuring it out.

I’m going to assume that since you mention 21.08.5, that this means you are 
using the slurm-wlm packages from the ubuntu repos, and not building yourself?

And have all the components (slurmctld(s), slurmdbd, slurmd(s)) been upgraded 
as well?

The only thing that immediately comes to mind is that I remember reading a good 
bit about Ubuntu 22.04’s use of cgroups v2, which as I understand it are very 
different from cgroups v1, and plenty of people have had issues with v1/v2 
mismatches with slurm and other applications.

https://discuss.linuxcontainers.org/t/after-updated-to-more-recent-ubuntu-version-with-cgroups-v2-ubuntu-16-04-container-is-not-working-properly/14022

Hope that at least steers the conversation in a good direction.
