SYNOPSIS

9       slurmstepd
10

DESCRIPTION

12       slurmstepd  is  a  job  step  manager  for Slurm.  It is spawned by the
13       slurmd daemon when a job step is launched and terminates when  the  job
14       step  does.   It  is  responsible for managing input and output (stdin,
15       stdout and stderr) for the job step along with its accounting and  sig‐
16       nal  processing.  slurmstepd should not be initiated by users or system
17       administrators.
