Hello,
I had a problem running slurm in frontend mode (configured with --enable-front-end) for modeling purposes. Namely, all submitted jobs stay in configuring state:
It turns out that test_job_nodes_ready function from job_mgr.c checking the readiness of the first node for batch job execution. But in frontend mode, it is the task of the frontend node. So I added checking of frontend node instead. That fixed the problem.
Regards,
Nikolay
Used configuration:
