- DONE: Port nodeextendjob to Slurm scontrol update jobid=974 timelimit=+7-0:0:0
- DONE: Port nodesfree to Slurm
- DONE: Port nodereboot to Slurm scontrol ASAP reboot reason=testing testpost001
- DONE: Create a subset of testpost cluster that only runs Slurm for admins to test.
- Done: Install Slurmctld on testpost-serv-1, testpost-master, and OS image
- Done: install Slurm reaper on OS image (RHEL-7.8.1.3)
- Done: Make the new testpost-master a Slurm submit host
- Create a small subset of nmpost cluster that only runs Slurm for users to test.
- Done: Install Slurmctld on nmpost-serv-1, nmpost-master, herapost-master, and OS image
- Done: install Slurm reaper on OS image (RHEL-7.8.1.3)
- Done: Make the new nmpost-master a Slurm submit host
- Done: Make the new, disked herapost-master a Slurm submit host.
- Need at least 3 nodes: batch/interactive, vlass/vlasstest, hera/hera-i
- Identify stake-holders (E.g. operations, VLASS, DAs, sci-staff, SSA, HERA, observers, ALMA, CV) and give them the chance to test Slurm and provide opinions
- implement useful opinions
- for MPI jobs we should either create hardware ssh keys so users can launch MPI worker processes like they currently do in Torque (with mpiexec or mpirun) or, compile Slurm with PMIx to work with OpenMPI3 or compile OpenMPI with the libpmi that Slurm creates.
- Set a date to transition remaining cluster to Slurm. Possibly before we have to pay for Torque again around Jun. 2022.
- Do another pass on the documentation https://info.nrao.edu/computing/guide/cluster-processing
