v2.6 is stable. The master is still under active development and there are changes in data structures, plugin calls, etc. You can upgrade and use the old configuration file fine. What is best to use comes down to a judgement call.
Quoting Leith Bade <[email protected]>:
Hi, I have now managed to set a up a small cluster inside a few VMs with SLURM 2.6. I want to start creating the new scheduler plugin but am not sure if I should work on the 2.6 branch or master. Is master still compatible with a 2.6 install? Can I just overwrite the existing setup with the binaries from master and still have a working test cluster? Or should I just stick with 2.6 and merge into master when I am finished? Thanks, Leith Bade [email protected]
