Slurm Version 23.02 is Now Available

We are pleased to announce the availability of Slurm version 23.02.

To highlight some new features in 23.02:

• Added a new (optional) RPC rate limiting system in slurmctld.
• Added usage gathering for gpu/nvml (Nvidia) and gpu/rsmi (AMD) plugins.
• Added a new jobcomp/kafka plugin.
• Overhauled the “remote resources” (licenses) functionality managed through sacctmgr / slurmdbd, and introduce a new “lastconsumed” field that is intended to be frequently updated with the current usage as reported by “lmstat” or similar tools. This allows for better cooperative license usage, especially for systems with external workstations and other use that is not under Slurm’s control.
• Added a new “scrun” command which can serve as a OCI runtime proxy.
• Support for –json/–yaml output from most Slurm commands, which has been extended to support additional filtering options.
• Extended “configless” operation to allow for propagation of files referenced in “Include” directives.
• Allow Slurm to create directories for stdout/stderr files. These can include substitution directives such as %j, %a, and %x.

The main Slurm documentation site has been updated to the new release as well.
