Hey,

I am currently trying to understand how I can schedule a job that needs
a GPU.

I read about GRES https://slurm.schedmd.com/gres.html and tried to use:

GresTypes=gpu
NodeName=test Gres=gpu:1

But calling - after a 'sudo scontrol reconfigure':

srun --gpus 1 hostname

didn't work:

srun: error: Unable to allocate resources: Invalid generic resource (gres) 
specification

so I read more https://slurm.schedmd.com/gres.conf.html but that didn't
really help me.


I am rather confused. GRES claims to be generic resources but then it
comes with three defined resources (GPU, MPS, MIG) and using one of
those didn't work in my case.

Obviously, I am misunderstanding something, but I am unsure where to look.


Best regards,
Xaver Stiensmeier
