Please note that the on-line Slurm documentation refers to version 22.05
(the latest version)! For your outdated version 17.x you will have to
find the old documentation.
Of course, upgrading to 22.05 is very strongly recommended! Please note
that you must upgrade by no more than 2 major releases at a time!! See
some notes in

I think reading the documentation is making me more confused; maybe this
has to do with version changes. My current slurm cluster is using version
17.x
Looking at the man page for gres.conf
(https://slurm.schedmd.com/gres.conf.html) I see this:
NOTE: Slurm support for gres/[mps|shard] requires the use of the
select/cons_tres plugin.
On my current (inherited) Slurm cluster we have:
SelectType=select/cons_res
but users are primarily using GPU resources, so I know Gres is working.
Why then is select/cons_tres required?
