Restarting slurmd should be fine assuming they come back before the
communications time out. I restart slurmd's all the time and haven't
had any real problems.

Ot is possible, but double check your config for timeouts first.

Slurm-users,
I'm still learning Slurm, so I have what I think is a basic question.
Can you restart slurmd on nodes where jobs are running, or will that
kill the jobs? I ran into the same problem as described here:
https://bugs.schedmd.com/show_bug.cgi?id=3535
I believe the best way to fix this is to restart slurmd on all my
nodes,
but I've been unable to determine conclusively whether I can do
that w/o
killing running jobs. I've spent some time googling this, but
couldn't
find a definitive answer one way or the other. I prefer to not kill a
bunch of user jobs on a Friday afternoon.
