In the gres.conf man page it's mentioned that "If generic resource
counts are set by the gres plugin function node_config_load(), this file
may be optional."
When looking at http://slurm.schedmd.com/gres_plugins.html I can't
figure out from the description for node_config_load() how to remove the
dependency on a gres.conf file.
Ideally, I'd like slurm to just accept whatever is in the Gres line (in
the result of scontrol show node) without requiring a matching gres
parameter to exist in a gres.conf file.
Assume that my health checker already updates the node resource in
scontrol as needed. Currently I also update the gres.conf file, and then
send a sighup to the local slurmd but this seems overcomplicated, when
the node definition in scontrol has already been updated to the correct
values.
