I am using slurm 2.3.5 with scontrol man page for July 2011. Should I be using
a newer version ? which ?
In the July2011 scontrol man page, I cannot find: flags=static_alloc

reservation - can the replacement be disabled ?
See "flags=static_alloc" description in the scontrol man page section
describing reservation creation. That will prevent substitution of replacement
nodes.
