Hello @review-team and Store Team -
I would like to request the following aliases for the Slurm snap. These commands are used by both users and applications to communicate with the Slurm control server, and are commonly accessed via the users’ shell/terminal or other Popen
like facility. I have linked the manpage for each command so that you can see what functionality it provides to users and applications:

MUNGE specific
The Slurm snap package comes with the MUNGE authentication service bundled inside of it. What exactly is MUNGE? It’s a purpose built for HPC systems and used to authenticate the various hosts inside of an HPC cluster. You can check out its manpage to learn more about it!
The snap package is currently private because the original publisher of the Slurm snap wishes to have it transferred to the Ubuntu HPC community, but the latest revision is available in the latest/edge channel. Please let me know if you have any questions. Thanks for the assistance!
