Bamboo public-bigmem nodes not available

[Yann.Sagon]

Dear @nicolas.clairis your jobs were pending because no cpu server were available in the public-bigmem partition. The reason is they were in “drain” mode due to a user job badly working.

You can check the node state using scontrol show node cpu044 (check the line State)

I’ve canceled the user’s job and resumed the compute nodes. Your jobs are running now.

Best

oh great thanks for the notice and for the command as well!

Here is a little table I wrote for Bamboo and Baobab in case that serves also for other users:

I don’t know if there is something equivalent on the hpc wiki but never found sth similar so I thought it could be useful to include it as I regularly use it.
