Hi,

I was updating our compute node image and had a short maintenance window for node reboot. But users cannot submit jobs to the normal reservation and error message is quite hard to understand (at least user point of view). I think job should go to queue and wait if it cannot finish before the maint-reservation starts.


# scontrol create reservation=test starttime=now duration=14-00:00 users=tervotom nodes=c1170
# scontrol create reservation=test_maint StartTime=2020-10-13T15:00:00 duration=1:00:00 users=tervotom nodes=c1170 flags=maint


$ sbatch -A project_2001659 --reservation=test --nodes=1 -p medium -t 1:00:00 gpcnet_opmi_load.sh 
sbatch: error: Batch job submission failed: Requested node configuration is not available

BR,
Tommi
