What does sacctmgr show for the user you added to have access to the QoS, and what does Slurm show for the partition config?

I mean users who have association with the qos can not submit job with sbatch, they get error as sbatch: error: Batch job submission failed: Invalid qos specification Do we need to make anymore changes in slurm.conf so that qos becomes permanent ?

Currently we have a partition with 30 GPU cards . We have defined a qos gpu-rtx that allows user to reserve 2 cards sacctmgr show qos gpu-rtx format=MaxTRESPU%60 MaxTRESPU ----------------------------------------------------- cpu=96,gres/gpu=2 We have defined a user test that is assoc with this qos sacctmgr show assoc user=test format=user,qos Qos gpu-rtx Now we define another qos gpu-rtx-reserved that allows gpu=8 sacctmgr show qos gpu-rtx-reserved format=MaxTRESPU%60 MaxTRESPU ----------------------------------------------------- cpu=192,gres/gpu=8 User test is not associated with gpu-rtx-reserved qos. So he should not be able to use more then gpu=2 . Both of these qos are now in slurm.conf for the partition parrtitionName=gpu-rtx6000-2 State=UP Nodes=g[15-29] MaxNodes=9 MaxTime=168:00:00 DefMemPerCPU=3996 AllowQos=gpu-rtx,gpu-rtx-reserved But we found out that even though user is not assoc with gpu-rtx-reserved if the user uses gpu-rtx-reserved in his slurm script , he can reserve 8 gpu cards So our question is , can the users assoc with one partition qos can use the other qos in the partition even if they are not associated with it . or in other words , we can only define one partition qos and not more then one.? Hope i was able to explain ? Any advice if we want partition to use more then one qos with different limits and users associated with one qos should not use other qos ? Majid
