* Changes in SLURM 0.2.17
=========================
-- Fixes for reported problems:
+ - slurm/279: Hold jobs that can't execute due to DOWN or DRAINED
+ nodes and release when nodes are returned to service.
- slurm/285: "srun killed due to SIGPIPE"
-- Support for running job steps on nodes relative to current
allocation via srun -r, --relative=n option.
-- SIGKILL no longer broadcasted to job via srun on task failure unless
--no-allocate option is used.
-- Re-enabled "chkconfig --add" in default RPMs.
+ -- Backup controller setting proper PID into slurmctld.pid file.
+ -- Backup controller restores QSW state each time it assumes control
+ -- Backup controller purges old job records before assuming control
+ to avoid resurrecting defunct jobs.
+ -- Kill jobs on non-responding DRAINING nodes and make their state
+ DRAINED.
+ -- Save state upon completion of a job's last EPILOG_COMPLETION to
+ reduce possibility of inconsistent job and node records when the
+ controller is transitioning between primary and backup.
+ -- Change logging level of detailed communication errors to not print
+ them unless detailed debugging is requested.
+ -- Increase number of concurrent controller server threads from 20
+ to 50 and restructure code to handle backlogs more efficiently.
+ -- Partition state at controller startup is based upon slurm.conf
+ rather than previously saved state. Additional improvements to
+ avoid inconsistent job/node/partition states at restart. Job state
+ information is used to arbitrate conflicts.
+ -- Orphaned file descriptors eliminated.
