We are pleased to announce the release of 16.05.0! It contains many new
features and performance enhancements. Please read the RELEASE_NOTES
file to get an idea of the new items that have been added. The online
Slurm documentation has been updated to reflect this release.
We have also release one of the last tags of 15.08 in the form of 15.08.12.
Both versions can be downloaded from the normal spot
http://schedmd.com/#repos.
* Changes in Slurm 15.08.12
===========================
-- Do not attempt to power down a node which has never responded if the
slurmctld daemon restarts without state.
-- Fix for possible slurmstepd segfault on invalid user ID.
-- MySQL - Fix for possible race condition when archiving multiple
clusters
at the same time.
-- Fix compile for when you don't have hwloc.
-- Fix issue where daemons would only listen on specific address given in
slurm.conf instead of all. If looking for specific addresses use
TopologyParam options No*InAddrAny.
-- Cray - Better robustness when dealing with the aeld interface.
-- job_submit.lua - add array_inx value for job arrays.
-- Perlapi - Remove unneeded/undefined mutex.
-- Fix issue when TopologyParam=NoInAddrAny is set the responses wouldn't
make it to the slurmctld when using message aggregation.
-- MySQL - Fix potential memory leak when rolling up data.
-- Fix issue with clustername file when running on NFS with root_squash.
-- Fix race condition with respects to cleaning up the profiling threads
when in use.
-- Fix issues when building on NetBSD.
-- Fix jobcomp/elasticsearch build when libcurl is installed in a
non-standard location.
-- Fix MemSpecLimit to explicitly require TaskPlugin=task/cgroup and
ConstrainRAMSpace set in cgroup.conf.
-- MYSQL - Fix order of operations issue where if the database is
locked up
and the slurmctld doesn't wait long enough for the response it
would give
up leaving the connection open and create a situation where the
next message
sent could receive the response of the first one.
* Changes in Slurm 16.05.0
=============================
-- Update seff to fix warnings with ncpus, and list slurm-perlapi
dependency
in spec file.
-- Fix testsuite to consistent use /usr/bin/env {bash,expect} construct.
-- Cray - Ensure that step completion messages get to the database.
-- Fix step cpus_per_task calculation for heterogeneous job allocation.
-- Fix --with-json= configure option to use specified path.
-- Add back thread_id to "thread_id" LogTimeFormat to distinguish between
mutliple threads with the same name. Now displays thread name and id.
-- Change how Slurm determines the NUMA count of a node. Ignore KNL NUMA
that only include memory.
-- Cray - Fix node list parsing in capmc_suspend/resume programs.
-- Fix sbatch #BSUB parsing for -W and -M options.
-- Fix GRES task layout bug that could cause slurmctld to abort.
-- Fix to --gres-flags=enforce-binding logic when multiple sockets needed.
