[slurm-users] END Mail notifications not being sent?

[Angel de Vicente]

Hello,

recently I updated our Slurm version to 23.02.3 and I have now noticed
that jobs having the "mail-type" option as:

#SBATCH --mail-type=BEGIN,END

only send mail notification for the BEGIN step. This was previously
working for both BEGIN and END notifications (I believe it was OK with
version 23.02.2), and I haven't done any other relevant changes.

The mail log doesn't show any errors, neither the slurmctld.log or
slurmd.log files.

Any idea what could be going on or how to debug this?

Many thanks,

As a follow-up, I found that this was due to the "smail" script (bundled
with the "seff" contributed package). I had to do a small modification
and mails are being now delivered normally.

And to close the loop on this, the "smail" fix will be in 23.02.4 when
it's released
