Hi Patrick,

You're missing a Gres= on your node in your slurm.conf:

Nodename=tenibre-gpu-0 RealMemory=257270 Sockets=2 CoresPerSocket=16 
ThreadsPerCore=1 State=UNKNOWN Gres=gpu:A100-40:1,gpu:A100-80:1

Hello Patrick,

As using this GPU resource increase I would like to manage this resource with 
Gres to avoid usage conflict. But at this time my setup do not works as I can 
reach a GPU without reserving it:

   srun -n 1 -p tenibre-gpu ./a.out

can use a GPU even if the reservation do not specify this resource (checked with running 
nvidia-smi  on the node). "tenibre-gpu" is a slurm partition with only this gpu 
node.

I think what you're looking for is the ConstrainDevices parameter in 
cgroup.conf.

See here:

Best,


Hi Roberto,

thanks for pointing to this parameter. I set it, update all the nodes, restart 
slurmd everywhere but it does not change the behavior.
However, when looking in the slurmd log on the GPU node I notice this 
information:

So something is wrong in may gres.conf file I think as I ttry do configure 2 
different devices on the node may be?

## GPU setup on tenibre-gpu-0
NodeName=tenibre-gpu-0 Name=gpu Type=A100-40 File=/dev/nvidia0 
Flags=nvidia_gpu_env
NodeName=tenibre-gpu-0 Name=gpu Type=A100-80 File=/dev/nvidia1 
Flags=nvidia_gpu_env
