Hi SLURM users, I work on a cluster, and we recently transitioned to using SLURM on some of our nodes. However, we're currently having some difficulty limiting the number of jobs that a user can run simultaneously in particular partitions. Here are the steps we've taken:
1. Created a new QOS and set MaxJobsPerUser=4 with sacctmgr. 2. Modified slurm.conf so that the relevant PartitionName line includes QOS=<qos name>. 3. Restarted slurmctld. However, after taking these steps, the partition in question still does not have any limits on the number of jobs that a user can run simultaneously. Is there something wrong here, or are there additional steps that we need to take? Any advice is greatly appreciated!
