[slurm-users] fast way for a node to determine its own state?

[Alexis Huxley]

I'm running a node health script that needs to know the state of 
the node on which it is running. Currently, I'm getting the
state with this:

        sinfo -N ... | grep `uname -n`

Depending on the load on the scheduler, this can be slow. Is there
faster way? Perhaps one that doesn't involve communicating with 
the scheduler node? Thanks!
