Hi, In particular we were looking at SLURM_DISTRIBUTION, SLURM_CPU_BIND and the
like. Looking those for both sbatch and srun. A simple script was created for
the Prolog and taskProlog options: #!/bin/bash export
SLURM_DISTRIBUTION=block:block When we set it prior to sbatch or srun like so
export SLURM_DISTRIBUTION=block:block srun -N 2 sleep 5 it works just fine.

they're working for us OK[1]. There is also the use_env SPANK plugin[2] which
we've used with some success as well... I think it does much of what you'd like
to accomplish.IIRC, these things work differently between sbatch and srun,
which are you using? srun has the --task-prolog=<path> option. What happens
when you use that? sbatch has an option "--export-file" which might have some
utility for your purpose, but I've never used itMaybe post your task
prolog?BestM[1]

to set default SLURM environment variables for all users. I'm newish to SLURM
and tried using Prolog and Task Prolog with no avail. The goal is to not write
a plugin. Is the best way to set them outside of SLURM in the user's
environment and have them overwrite via the command line if desired? Thank you
in advance for any and all suggestions! Kelly -- Hey! Somebody punched the
