It is documented, but it strikes me as simply being a lazy implementation. The consequence of this is that you cannot submit jobs 0-999, then 1000-1999, etc. You must submit 0-999, 0-999, ..., with an additional argument. It doesn't really prevent you from doing anything, it just gets in your way.
(The name MaxArraySize definitely makes it seem more like this is a bug than intended, albeit documented, behavior.)
I looked into submitting a patch but unfortunately MaxArraySize is used in more places than I would have guessed, and lost interest in trying to test all of them.
- bonoboTP 7y agoWe're talking about installing Slurm for one's own use, so you can just change MaxArraySize in the configuration as an easy solution.
