 which are children of processes it spawns for a user job. 
 The slurmd daemon must be restarted for a change in ProctrackType
 to take effect.
+NOTE: "proctrack/linuxproc" and "proctrack/pgid" can fail to 
+identify all processes associated with a job since processes 
+can become a child of the init process (when the parent process 
+terminates) or change their process group. 
+To reliably track all processes, one of the other mechanisms 
+utilizing kernel modifications is preferable. 
 NOTE: "proctrack/linuxproc" is not compatable with "swich/elan."
