Direct answer
Slurm Job, in this reproducibility fixture, is limited to the following inspected scope. sbatch submits a batch script, assigns a job identifier, applies directive and option precedence, and makes named SLURM_* metadata available to the job environment. The adapter normalizes a caller-supplied, allowlisted subset of SLURM metadata into a deterministic witness field set. The answer carries the source boundaries forward and does not infer authority from a neighboring topic.
Reproducibility fixture
Use synthetic or openly licensed inputs with fixed versions and an independently recomputable digest.
A fixture proves a mechanism can be exercised; it is not evidence of production operation or external validation.
Applied scope: sbatch submits a batch script, assigns a job identifier, applies directive and option precedence, and makes named SLURM_* metadata available to the job environment. The adapter normalizes a caller-supplied, allowlisted subset of SLURM metadata into a deterministic witness field set.
Definition and operating context
The canonical concept owner is maha-research. This route may apply evidence; it cannot redefine or inherit the authority of its canonical owner.
This property may publish research objects, machine-readable provenance, reproduction protocols. It must not publish sales copy or unsupported interpretation.
Evidence and exact locators
Slurm Workload Manager — sbatch — DESCRIPTION; #SBATCH directives; input environment variables; output environment variables; RETURN VALUE. Establishes: sbatch submits a batch script, assigns a job identifier, applies directive and option precedence, and makes named SLURM_* metadata available to the job environment.
Maha SLURM witness adapter — slurm_metadata; allowlisted SLURM_ARRAY_JOB_ID, SLURM_ARRAY_TASK_ID, SLURM_CLUSTER_NAME, SLURM_CPUS_PER_TASK, SLURM_JOB_ID, SLURM_JOB_NAME, SLURM_NNODES and SLURM_JOB_PARTITION. Establishes: The adapter normalizes a caller-supplied, allowlisted subset of SLURM metadata into a deterministic witness field set.
What the evidence does not establish
Successful submission is not successful execution, scientific validity, resource availability, or proof that an output came from the named job.
The adapter does not submit a job, contact Slurm, capture arbitrary environment values, prove scheduler identity, prove job completion, or establish output correctness.
This route must not claim sales copy.
This route must not claim unsupported interpretation.

Questions this page can answer
What does Slurm Job mean in this bounded context?
Slurm Job, in this reproducibility fixture, is limited to the following inspected scope. sbatch submits a batch script, assigns a job identifier, applies directive and option precedence, and makes named SLURM_* metadata available to the job environment. The adapter normalizes a caller-supplied, allowlisted subset of SLURM metadata into a deterministic witness field set. The answer carries the source boundaries forward and does not infer authority from a neighboring topic.
Which inspected sources support this fixture answer?
Slurm Workload Manager — sbatch (current documentation inspected 2026-09-06), at DESCRIPTION; #SBATCH directives; input environment variables; output environment variables; RETURN VALUE, supports sbatch submits a batch script, assigns a job identifier, applies directive and option precedence, and makes named SLURM_* metadata available to the job environment. Maha SLURM witness adapter (repository source inspected 2026-09-06), at slurm_metadata; allowlisted SLURM_ARRAY_JOB_ID, SLURM_ARRAY_TASK_ID, SLURM_CLUSTER_NAME, SLURM_CPUS_PER_TASK, SLURM_JOB_ID, SLURM_JOB_NAME, SLURM_NNODES and SLURM_JOB_PARTITION, supports the adapter normalizes a caller-supplied, allowlisted subset of SLURM metadata into a deterministic witness field set.
What does the evidence not establish?
Successful submission is not successful execution, scientific validity, resource availability, or proof that an output came from the named job. The adapter does not submit a job, contact Slurm, capture arbitrary environment values, prove scheduler identity, prove job completion, or establish output correctness. Property boundary: This route may apply evidence; it cannot redefine or inherit the authority of its canonical owner.
Which definition or canonical owner must be read first?
This page is the local maha-research definition for its topic. Related applications may depend on it but may not silently redefine it.
What source, policy, implementation, or release change would require revision?
Re-evaluate this page when a cited source, locator, governing instrument, local implementation, or canonical definition changes. Publication also requires a matching exact-revision review and active canonical release.
