Hi Support,

The below occurs when a job runs longer than the requested time. We usually see a negative value but are not getting "INVALID"

$SQUEUE_FORMAT

Please advise.

Which version of the 'squeue' client command were you using previously? And were there any local patches applied?

I'm starting to wonder, based on this and bug 3483, that you may have been running a locally-modified 14.11 release?

Looking back at the code, I don't think %L has ever printed a negative number, and was always using INVALID to denote these.

Hi Tim,

I will look through our patches and see if this was a patch given to us. 

We are running the proper version:

[root@cluster init.d]# scontrol --version
slurm 16.05.7

This is a branch created directly from the slurm-16-05-07-1 branch.

Thanks,
Paul

This was due to a local patch, and I apologise for wasting your time.  I'll make sure that our procedure gets changed to avoid bugs like this getting filed in future.
