Hi Will -

Thank you for the link, but it's unclear to me what you're proposing here as a contribution...

If you'd like to add this to the https://slurm.schedmd.com/download.html please feel free to propose a patch to add a link. (See docs/html/download.shtml in our source tree.) :)

cheers,
- Tim

Tim,

Scripts to provision EC2 instances is listed as remaining work in the elastic computing documentation (https://slurm.schedmd.com/elastic_computing.html) which our repo does.

We also noticed SchedMD's slurm-gcp repo https://github.com/SchedMD/slurm-gcp does something similar, but is intended for use only with gcp, where as ours tries to not be tightly coupled to a specific cloud provider.

Both of these things made us think our repo could be of interest to you, and creating a ticket appeared to be the best way to make you aware of it.

Would it make more sense to add this to https://slurm.schedmd.com/documentation.html under the Slurm Administrators Cloud section, instead of the downloads page, to be consistent with the way the slurm-gcp repo is referenced?

Thanks,
  Will

Yep, it's certainly of interest, thank you for pinging us.

The main doc page is reserved for "first-line" functionality that SchedMD supports; the downloads page would be more appropriate for community packages such as this. I'm happy to go in and add that link if you'd like.
