This is a bit off-topic, but I see this a lot, so I thought I'd provide a friendly warning. The "right" systemd way to do this is either to put a new unit file in /etc/systemd/system/ which will completely override the one in /usr/lib/systemd/system/, *OR* you can create /etc/systemd/system/slurmd.service.d/core_limit.conf and put ONLY the following in it: [Service] LimitCORE=0 This will *supplement* the SchedMD unit file rather than causing you to have to maintain a patched/modified version until the end of time. :-) Opinions on systemd are varied and often rather passionate, but one thing they did get right (IMHO) is making it easier for distribution providers, software packagers, and system engineers to all have a say in how things are configured without stepping all over each other's toes! ;-) Michael -- Michael E.
