Hi!

I'm sure this is easy, but I can't find the solution: how can I
prevent Slurm from putting new jobs on the queue? Basically I would
like to disable sbatch/salloc etc. I set MaxJobs=0 for all accounts,
but jobs are still placed on the queue with 'JobState=PENDING
Reason=AssociationJobLimit'. I know I could just block access to the
submit hosts, but I wonder if this can be done at the Slurm level.

Also, is there an easy way to specify that a maintenance reservation
should start "as soon as possible"? If I give starttime=now, scontrol
complains "Requested nodes are busy", which is true of course. I'd
like to start the reservation as soon as the last currently running
job finishes.

Thanks,

Jens.
