Hi Stefan, I have not been able to find any 18.08.x PPAs; I myself have backported the latest Debian HPC Team release of 19.05.5 into my PPA - https://launchpad.net/~wdennis/+archive/ubuntu/dhpc-backports
I have also created local packages of 18.08.6.2, but only for Ubuntu 16.04, for my own use... Could you not use my 19.05 PPA to upgrade your 17.11? I think that meets the "no more than 2 releases" rule (17.11 -> 18.08 -> 19.05) Best, Will -----Original Message----- From: slurm-users <slurm-users-boun...@lists.schedmd.com> On Behalf Of "Stefan Stäglich" Sent: Monday, March 16, 2020 8:39 AM To: slurm-users@lists.schedmd.com Subject: Re: [slurm-users] Upgrade from Ubuntu 18.04 to 20.04 Hello, seems that the is a single package only in the PPA and the SystemD units are missing. Is there a PPA that provides Slurm 18.08.x spitted in different packages like Ubuntu does? Best, Stefan > Hello, > > > > we are running our cluster with Ubuntu 18.04.
