Ticket 15857

I have a small 2 compute node GPU cluster, where each node as 2 GPUs.

$ sinfo -o "%20N  %10c  %10m  %25f  %30G "
NODELIST              CPUS        MEMORY      AVAIL_FEATURES             GRES                          
o186i[126-127]        128         64000       (null)                     gpu:nvidia_a40:2(S:0-1) 

In my batch script, I request 4 GPUs and let Slurm decide how many nodes to automatically allocate.  I also tell it I want 1 task per node.


$ cat rig_batch.sh
#!/usr/bin/env bash

#SBATCH --ntasks-per-node=1
#SBATCH --nodes=1-9
#SBATCH --gpus=4
#SBATCH --error=/home/corujor/slurm-error.log
#SBATCH --output=/home/corujor/slurm-output.log

bash -c 'echo $(hostname):SLURM_JOBID=${SLURM_JOBID}:SLURM_PROCID=${SLURM_PROCID}:CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=${CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES}'


I submit my batch script on slurm-22.05.2.

$ sbatch rig_batch.sh
Submitted batch job 7


I get the expected results.  That is, since each compute node has 2 GPUs and I requested 4 GPUs, Slurm allocated 2 nodes, and 1 task per node.


$ cat slurm-output.log
o186i126:SLURM_JOBID=7:SLURM_PROCID=0:CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=0,1
o186i127:SLURM_JOBID=7:SLURM_PROCID=1:CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=0,1


However, when I try to submit the same batch script on slurm-22.05.7, it fails.

$ sbatch rig_batch.sh
sbatch: error: Batch job submission failed: Requested node configuration is not available


Here is my configuration.

The only difference when I run this with slurm-22.05.2, is that I have to make this change or Slurm will complain.  Other than that, the same configuration is used for both slurm-22.05.2 and slurm.05.7.  In both cases, I am running on the same cluster using the same compute nodes, just pointing to different versions of Slurm.
