One last shot on the firewall front Steve -- does the control node have a firewall enabled? I've seen cases where that can cause the sporadic messaging failures that you seem to be seeing.

That failing, I'll defer to anyone with different ideas!

Thanks Andy

Firewall is off on all three system. Also if they could not communicate, I do not think ‘scontrol show node’ would not return the data that is does. And the logs would not show responses as indicated below

And the names are correct, used the recommended ‘hostname -s’ when configuring the slurm.conf node entries.

In fact slurm seems to be case sensitive, which surprised the heck out of me

 1. Look for a firewall on all of your slurm -- they almost always
    break slurm communications.
 2. Confirm that "ssh srvgridslurm01 hostname" returns, exactly,
    "srvgridslurm01"

    By tailing the log for slurmctld,  I can see when a node is recognized

    Node srvgridslurm03 now responding

    By turning up the logging levels I can see comm between slurmctld
    and the nodes and there appears to be a response

    What I do not understand is the disjoint. It seems to record
    responses, but flags the node as not responding – all nodes. There
    are only three right now as this is a test environment. 3 Centos7
