Description Michael DiDomenico 2018-10-26 06:59:52 MDT

does slurm 18.08.0 support pmix v4?  from the config.log file it would appear that if the pmix version i'm trying to link to is not v3/2/1 then configure assumes it's pmix v1.  which in turn gives a very missing leading error output from configure that says something like 'configure found v1 and will not likely link correctly'

Hi  Michael,

 We are not sure what you mean by v4. GitHub only has up to 3.1.

Could you let us know if this was a mistake or if you are referring to some other version?

Comment 2 Michael DiDomenico 2018-10-26 11:07:57 MDT

if you do a git clone and then look in the VERSION file, it says version 4

That's not a released version. The PMIx head branch isn't stable and should not be run. v3 is their latest release that we support.

Slurm 18.08+ supports PMIx v1.2+, v2.x and v3.x.
