NAME

       topology.conf - Slurm configuration file for defining the network topology

DESCRIPTION

       topology.conf  is  an  ASCII  file  which  describes  the  cluster's  network topology for
       optimized job resource allocation.  The file location can be modified at system build time
       using  the  DEFAULT_SLURM_CONF  parameter  or  at execution time by setting the SLURM_CONF
       environment variable. The file will always  be  located  in  the  same  directory  as  the
       slurm.conf file.

       Parameter  names are case insensitive.  Any text following a "#" in the configuration file
       is treated as a comment through the end of that line.  Changes to the  configuration  file
       take  effect  upon  restart  of  Slurm  daemons,  daemon  receipt of the SIGHUP signal, or
       execution of the command "scontrol reconfigure" unless otherwise noted.

       The network topology configuration one one line defining a switch name and  its  children,
       either  node  names  or  switch names.  Slurm's hostlist expression parser is used, so the
       node and  switch  names  need  not  be  consecutive  (e.g.  "Nodes=tux[0-3,12,18-20]"  and
       "Switches=s[0-2,4-8,12]" will parse fine).  An optional link speed may also be specified.

       The  topology.conf  file for an Infiniband switch can be automatically generated using the
       slurmibtopology tool found here: <https://ftp.fysik.dtu.dk/Slurm/slurmibtopology.sh>.

       The overall configuration parameters available include:

       SwitchName
              The name of a switch. This name is internal to Slurm and  arbitrary.   Each  switch
              should have a unique name.  This field must be specified.

       Switches
              Child switches of the named switch.  Either this option or the Nodes option must be
              specified.

       Nodes  Child Nodes of the named leaf switch.  Either this option or  the  Switches  option
              must be specified.

       LinkSpeed
              An optional value specifying the performance of this communication link.  The units
              used are arbitrary and this information is currently not used.  It may be  used  in
              the future to optimize resource allocations.
