Hi Magnus and Andy,

from my side +1 for the
#SBATCH END-OF-OPTIONS
solution

A better approach would be to add to SLURM a "#SBATCH END-OF-OPTIONS" or
something similar to mark the end of sbatch options and that sbatch can
stop parsing from that point.

Never mind; which I changed "#sbatch" to the correct "#SBATCH", I got 4
tasks. According to the man page, this is a bug. For now, I like
Magnus's suggestion :-)

Hendryk, what sbatch command line options are you using? How are you
determining that job 1 got 2 tasks? I just tried the following script,
and it correctly ran just 1 task:

$ cat test.sh
#!/bin/bash
#SBATCH --ntasks=1

srun hostname

#sbatch --ntasks=4

## end of script
$ sbatch test.sh
Submitted batch job 18720
$ cat slurm-18720.out
node09
$

For further discussion on this topic, please

 1. Reply to the whole list, not just me
 2. Indicate what OS and Slurm versions you are using
 3. Provide a copy of your slurm.conf file with any sensitive
    information, like node names or IP addresses, removed

Hello,

is there a way to prevent slurm from parsing the whole jobscript for
#SBATCH statements?
Assume I have the following jobscript "job1.sh":

#!/bin/bash
#SBATCH --nodes=1
#SBATCH --ntasks=1
#SBATCH --job-name=job1

srun -l echo "slurm jobid $SLURM_JOB_ID named: $SLURM_JOB_NAME"

cat > job2.sh <<EOF
#!/bin/bash
#SBATCH --nodes=1
#SBATCH --ntasks=2
#SBATCH --job-name=job2

srun -l echo "slurm jobid \$SLURM_JOB_ID named: \$SLURM_JOB_NAME"
EOF

sbatch job2.sh


If I submit the job1.sh the resources are allocated such that 2 tasks
are given and not 1. I would like to have 1 task for the first job
(as in the very first lines) and then a different setting for the
created job ...

Thanx for any help,
Hendryk
