Daniel, it appears you have found a bug. I know the "nodes" used to wrap, and you could use the arrow keys to navigate anything that wasn't on the screen, but it doesn't appear that is the case anymore. My guess is there is an easy fix. If you find a solution let us know and we will include it in the next release.

Thanks,
Danny

smap - one line of nodes exceeds the screen width

My customers often use smap to show what their cluster is doing.
sview is also used but often X11 isn't available.

For a standard Linux cluster (ie not Cray or Bluegene toruses) smap appears to show the nodes as a single line of characters. One of my clusters has 480 nodes - this is clearly too wide for the display and gets truncated.

I have looked at the source e.g. working_cluster.c and node_info.c
There appears to be some support for multi-line display in smap but I cannot work out how to manage it or configure it.

Can someone confirm if it is possible to show a 468 node cluster with smap as-is (slurm 2.3.5) with the lines wrapping as say 5 lines of 96 nodes = 480. ?

Otherwise this is a  request for this feature.

The precedent is showstate from moab/maui which has the
   NODECFG[atlas379] FRAME=6 SLOT=18
stanza in the config file that allows explicit mapping of where nodes appear in the text based display.
