Question 33
UnclassifiedWhat does 'scontrol show node <nodename>' display?
Correct answer: B
Explanation
`scontrol show node <nodename>` displays the full node record for the named Slurm node. That includes the node’s state and configuration details such as GRES, partitions, reason, and features, which is why the answer says it shows the complete node state.
Why each option is right or wrong
A. Node hardware specifications only
B. Complete node state including GRES, partitions, state, reason, and features
In Slurm, `scontrol show node <nodename>` queries the controller for the full node record, as defined by the `scontrol` administrative interface in the Slurm documentation. The output includes the node’s current state plus configuration fields such as `Gres=`, `Partitions=`, `Reason=`, and `Features=`, along with other node attributes, so the option describing a complete node state listing matches the command’s actual behavior.
C. Running jobs on the node
D. Node network configuration
