We are pleased to announce the availability of Slurm release candidate
24.05.0rc1.
To highlight some new features coming in 24.05:
- (Optional) isolated Job Step management. Enabled on a job-by-job basis
with the --stepmgr option, or globally through
SlurmctldParameters=enable_stepmgr.
- Federation - Allow for client command operation while SlurmDBD is
unavailable.
- New MaxTRESRunMinsPerAccount and MaxTRESRunMinsPerUser QOS limits.
- New USER_DELETE reservation flag.
- New Flags=rebootless option on Features for node_features/helpers
which indicates the given feature can be enabled without rebooting the node.
- Cloud power management options: New "max_powered_nodes=<limit>" option
in SlurmctldParamters, and new SuspendExcNodes=<nodes>:<count> syntax
allowing for <count> nodes out of a given node list to be excluded.
- StdIn/StdOut/StdErr now stored in SlurmDBD accounting records for
batch jobs.
- New switch/nvidia_imex plugin for IMEX channel management on NVIDIA
systems.
- New RestrictedCoresPerGPU option at the Node level, designed to ensure
GPU workloads always have access to a certain number of CPUs even when
nodes are running non-GPU workloads concurrently.
This is the first release candidate of the upcoming 24.05 release
series, and represents the end of development for this release, and a
finalization of the RPC and state file formats.
If any issues are identified with this release candidate, please report
them through https://bugs.schedmd.com against the 24.05.x version and we
will address them before the first production 24.05.0 release is made.
Please note that the release candidates are not intended for production use.
