I'm writing a select plugin for slurm, and when I do an srun command with the new plugin as the SelectType in slurm.conf I get this error:
srun: error: Task launch for 32.0 failed on node slurmnode2: Header lengths are longer than data received The new plugin is just a copy of the cons_res plugin directory with files renamed. I've changed the plugin_id and plugin_type[], and plugin_name[], but those are the only code changes. I've added the new plugin to the controller by copying the select_new_cons_res.so, .a, and .la files to /usr/local/lib/slurm (where the rest of the plugin files are), modified the SelectType in /etc/slurm/slurm.conf, and restarted the slurmctld. It looks like the errors are coming from the nodes. To use a new plugin do I need to do a complete reinstall of both controller and nodes? Thanks.
