Indeed - and that's the problem. Slurm 2.6.5 is the most recent release, and my guess is that SchedMD once again has changed the @$!#%#@ meaning of their envars. Frankly, it is nearly impossible to track all the variants they have created over the years. Please check to see if someone did a little customizing on your end as sometimes people do that to Slurm. Could also be they did something in the Slurm config file that is causing the changed behavior. Meantime, I'll try to ponder a potential solution in case this really is the "latest" Slurm screwup. > > > On Wed, Feb 12, 2014 at 07:19:54AM -0800, Ralph Castain wrote: >> ...and your version of Slurm? >> >> On Feb 12, 2014, at 7:19 AM, Ralph Castain <r...@open-mpi.org> wrote: >> >>> What is your SLURM_TASKS_PER_NODE? >>> >>> On Feb 12, 2014, at 6:58 AM, Adrian Reber <adr...@lisas.de> wrote: >>> >>>> No, the system has only a few MOAB_* variables and many SLURM_* >>>> variables: >>>> >>>> $BASH $IFS $SECONDS >>>> $SLURM_PTY_PORT >>>> $BASHOPTS $LINENO $SHELL >>>> $SLURM_PTY_WIN_COL >>>> $BASHPID $LINES $SHELLOPTS >>>> $SLURM_PTY_WIN_ROW >>>> $BASH_ALIASES $MACHTYPE $SHLVL >>>> $SLURM_SRUN_COMM_HOST >>>> $BASH_ARGC $MAILCHECK >>>> $SLURMD_NODENAME $SLURM_SRUN_COMM_PORT >>>> $BASH_ARGV $MOAB_CLASS >>>> $SLURM_CHECKPOINT_IMAGE_DIR $SLURM_STEPID >>>> $BASH_CMDS $MOAB_GROUP $SLURM_CONF >>>> $SLURM_STEP_ID >>>> $BASH_COMMAND $MOAB_JOBID >>>> $SLURM_CPUS_ON_NODE $SLURM_STEP_LAUNCHER_PORT >>>> $BASH_LINENO $MOAB_NODECOUNT >>>> $SLURM_DISTRIBUTION $SLURM_STEP_NODELIST >>>> $BASH_SOURCE $MOAB_PARTITION $SLURM_GTIDS >>>> $SLURM_STEP_NUM_NODES >>>> $BASH_SUBSHELL $MOAB_PROCCOUNT $SLURM_JOBID >>>> $SLURM_STEP_NUM_TASKS >>>> $BASH_VERSINFO $MOAB_SUBMITDIR >>>> $SLURM_JOB_CPUS_PER_NODE $SLURM_STEP_TASKS_PER_NODE >>>> $BASH_VERSION $MOAB_USER $SLURM_JOB_ID >>>> $SLURM_SUBMIT_DIR >>>> $COLUMNS $OPTERR >>>> $SLURM_JOB_NODELIST $SLURM_SUBMIT_HOST >>>> $COMP_WORDBREAKS $OPTIND >>>> $SLURM_JOB_NUM_NODES $SLURM_TASKS_PER_NODE >>>> $DIRSTACK $OSTYPE >>>> $SLURM_LAUNCH_NODE_IPADDR $SLURM_TASK_PID >>>> $EUID $PATH $SLURM_LOCALID >>>> $SLURM_TOPOLOGY_ADDR >>>> $GROUPS $POSIXLY_CORRECT $SLURM_NNODES >>>> $SLURM_TOPOLOGY_ADDR_PATTERN >>>> $HISTCMD $PPID $SLURM_NODEID >>>> $SRUN_DEBUG >>>> $HISTFILE $PS1 >>>> $SLURM_NODELIST $TERM >>>> $HISTFILESIZE $PS2 $SLURM_NPROCS >>>> $TMPDIR >>>> $HISTSIZE $PS4 $SLURM_NTASKS >>>> $UID >>>> $HOSTNAME $PWD >>>> $SLURM_PRIO_PROCESS $_ >>>> $HOSTTYPE $RANDOM $SLURM_PROCID >>>> >>>> >>>> >>>> >>>> On Wed, Feb 12, 2014 at 06:12:45AM -0800, Ralph Castain wrote: >>>>> Seems rather odd - since this is managed by Moab, you shouldn't be seeing >>>>> SLURM envars at all.
