Put sorted start times of "N/A" or 0 at the end of the list.
Add time specification: "now-" (i.e. subtract from the present)
AllocGres and ReqGres were removed. Alloc/ReqTres should be used
instead.
MAGNETIC flag on reservations. Reservations the user doesn't have to
even request.
The LicensesUsed line has been removed from scontrol show config .
Please use updated scontrol show licenses command as an
alternative.
--threads-per-core now influences task layout/binding, not just
allocation.
--gpus-per-node can be used instead of --gres=GPU
--hint=nomultithread can now be replaced
with --threads-per-core=1
The inconsistent terminology and environment variable naming for
Heterogeneous Job ("HetJob") support has been tidied up.
The correct term for these jobs are "HetJobs", references to
"PackJob" have been corrected.
The correct term for the separate constituent jobs are
"components", references to "packs" have been corrected.
Added support for an "Interactive Step", designed to be used with
salloc to launch a terminal on an allocated compute node
automatically. Enable by setting "use_interactive_step" as part of
LaunchParameters.
By default, a step started with srun will be granted exclusive (or
non- overlapping) access to the resources assigned to that step. No
other parallel step will be allowed to run on the same resources at
the same time. This replaces one facet of the '--exclusive' option's
behavior, but does not imply the '--exact' option described below.
To get the previous default behavior - which allowed parallel steps
to share all resources - use the new srun '--overlap' option.
In conjunction to this non-overlapping step allocation behavior
being the new default, there is an additional new option for step
management '--exact', which will allow a step access to only those
resources requested by the step. This is the second half of the
'--exclusive' behavior. Otherwise, by default all non-gres resources
on each node in the allocation will be used by the step, making it
so no other parallel step will have access to those resources unless
both steps have specified '--overlap'.
New command which permits crontab-compatible job scripts to be
defined. These scripts will recur automatically (at most) on the
intervals described.
