Hey everyone, additional info is that this shows up in the log whenever the X connection errors out:
[2025-06-06T20:05:57.959] [2858.extern stepmgr] error: _half_duplex: wrote -1 of 4096 [2025-06-06T20:06:33.786] [2858.extern stepmgr] error: _half_duplex: wrote -1 of 4096 It seems that the rpc connection that transfer the data has problems.

Hello everyone, we have run into a peculiar issue with our setup. First and foremost let me say that X forwarding using ssh -X or ssh -Y works fine and doesn't show any irregularities. Trying to use the X forwarding of slurm however results in a weird situation. We are using it like: srun --pty --x11 bash And then run something like glxgears. The program starts up normal however whenever you increase the window size beyond a certain size the connection to the X server gets broken and glxgears crashes. The same is true for any other program using X, some don't even start as their inital window size is too large, others crash as soon as you resize them beyond a certain point. We have no clue what might be the cause only that it seems to be related to how slurm does the XForwarding. We've tried X11Parameters both with and without host_authority. We're running 25.05.0 Any help or idea would be very appreciated. Cheers, Felix This message and any attachments are for the sole use of the intended recipient(s).
