[slurm-users] Slurm version 23.11.8 is now available

[Marshall Garey via slurm-users]

We are pleased to announce the availability of Slurm version 23.11.8.

The 23.11.8 release fixes some potential crashes in slurmctld,
slurmrestd, and slurmd when using less common features; two issues in
auth/slurm; and a few other minor bugs.

Slurm can be downloaded from https://www.schedmd.com/downloads.php .

> logrotate when recieving SIGUSR2 when using auth/slurm.

> -- Do not log the following errors when AcctGatherEnergyType plugins are used
> but a node does not have or cannot find sensors:
> "error: _get_joules_task: can't get info from slurmd"
> "error: slurm_get_node_energy: Zero Bytes were transmitted or received"
> However, the following error will continue to be logged:
> "error: Can't get energy data. No power sensors are available. Try later"
> -- Fix cloud nodes not being able to forward to nodes that restarted with new
> IP addresses.
