Question 3
UnclassifiedWhich Slurm configuration parameter specifies the GPU types available on a node?
Correct answer: B
Explanation
Slurm uses the "Gres=" setting in slurm.conf to declare generic resources on a node, including GPUs. The specific GPU models or types are then defined in gres.conf, which maps those resources to the hardware available on the node.
Why each option is right or wrong
A. GpuType in slurm.conf
B. Gres= in slurm.conf with gres.conf defining types
Slurm records generic resources at the node level with the `Gres=` field in `slurm.conf` (see `slurm.conf(5)`), which is the configuration point used to advertise GPUs to the scheduler. The actual GPU model/type mapping is then supplied in `gres.conf` via `Name=gpu` entries and associated `Type=` values, so the node’s available GPU types are not specified by a separate top-level `GPUType` parameter.
C. GpuConfig in gpu.conf
D. Resources= in partition.conf
