Hi Daniel,

you can create a reservation for the node for the said account.

Regards,

Subject: [slurm-users] scontrol create partition fails

Hi,

I need to temporarily dedicated one of our compute nodes to a single account. 
To do this, I was going to create a new partition but I'm running into an error 
where

scontrol create partition

outputs "scontrol: error: Invalid input: partition  Request aborted" regardless 
of what parameters I give it. As far as I can tell, this should be allowed; the 
man page for scontrol has a whole section titled "Partitions - Specficiations 
for Create, Update, and Delete Commands". What am I missing?

Also, is there a better way to approach this? This is really just a one or two 
day thing and I'm a little surprised there's no easy way to cordon off a node 
for a user or a project without spinning up an entire partition. Am I missing 
something obvious?

Thanks for any help you can provide.
