+# HOW TO EDIT THIS FILE:
+# The "handy ruler" below makes it easier to edit a package description.
+# Line up the first '|' above the ':' following the base package name, and
+# the '|' on the right side marks the last column you can put a character in.
+# You must make exactly 11 lines for the formatting to be correct. It's also
+# customary to leave one space after the ':' except on otherwise blank lines.

+slurm: Slurm is an open-source workload manager designed for Linux clusters
+slurm: of all sizes. It provides three key functions. First it allocates
+slurm: exclusive and/or non-exclusive access to resources (computer nodes)
+slurm: to users for some duration of time so they can perform work. Second,
+slurm: It provides a framework for starting, executing, and monitoring work
+slurm: (typically a parallel job) on a set of allocated nodes. Finally, it
+slurm: arbitrates contention for resources by managing a queue of pending
+slurm: work.
