No, I don't know how it's used. Anyone else care to answer?

Thanks for your advice about "new table". However it will a
bit difficult to support it in our case. Still, we need to
know answer to our question about "deleted" column in
job_table - do you maybe know how it is used?

Hi,
In exchange for Slurm automatically handling database
setup (and reconfiguration when you upgrade to a newer
version of Slurm), you have to allow it to do whatever it
wants to do with its tables.
Rather than adding (or reusing) an existing column in a
table, I would suggest creating new tables with names such
as "local_clusterName_job_table_extension" that have only
your added columns and appropriate keys. These tables
should persist over (most?) Slurm upgrades.

We have added to the SLURM
clusterName_job_table 1 custom column. But when we
restart slurmdbd , it is deleted. Why this happens
and is it possible to modify SLURM db (tables)
without disrupting SLURM work?
We have also noticed that in table
clusterName_job_table there is a column called
"deleted". Is it used by SLURM at any moment? Is
this column (deleted) anyhow related to task
archival? If it is unused - can we use for our
custom purposes and sometimes put "1" there
instead of 0? will it anyhow affect SLURM work?
