It looks as if there is no way currently to update the cpus_per_task of a pending job. I'm trying to do it using the perl bindings with something similar to the code snippet below, but it looks as though scontrol doesn't do it either. Can I make a feature request to allow cpus_per_task to be updatable?
#!/usr/bin/perl
use Slurm;
my $slurm = Slurm::new();
...
my $update_desc_msg = {
'job_id' => $jobid,
'cpus_per_task' => 4,
};
my $resp = $slurm->update_job($update_desc_msg);
