Hi Ahmet, We tried remote licenses, but encountered following issues, which lead us to using of local licenses. - only low case while inserting by sacctmgr - dead locks and duplicate records - direct insert is working and case sensitive, but scontrol doesn't see change until slurmctld restart

There is a remote/dynamic licenses feature: https://slurm.schedmd.com/licenses.html You can add licenses using scontrol command such as: sacctmgr add resource name=matlab count=50 server=rlm_host \ servertype=rlm type=license Regards; Ahmet M.
