    behavior of MPI plugins. Currently the configuration file can only be used
    to configure the PMIx plugin, but it can be extended to support other MPI
    plugins as well. The file will always be located in the same directory as
    the \fBslurm.conf\fR. This file is optional.

    Parameter names are case insensitive. Any text following a "#" in the
    configuration file is treated as a comment through the end of that line.
    Changes to the configuration file take effect upon restart of Slurm daemons,
    daemon receipt of the SIGHUP signal, or execution of the command "scontrol
    reconfigure" unless otherwise noted.

    Settings from this configuration file can be viewed in the output of
    "scontrol show config". This configuration file can be included when using
    "configless" mode. Information from mpi.conf is read at startup or upon
    reconfigure by slurmctld and slurmd. Instances of slurmstepd for batch steps
    will receive information about the plugin requested from slurmd.

    .SH "PARAMETERS"

    .TP
    \fBPMIxCliTmpDirBase\fR=<\fIpath\fR>
    Directory to have PMIx use for temporary files.
    Defaults to not being set.
    .IP

    .TP
    \fBPMIxCollFence\fR={mixed|tree|ring}
    Define the type of fence to use for collecting inter-node data.
    Defaults to not being set. See also \fBPMIxFenceBarrier\fR.
    .IP

    .TP
    \fBPMIxDebug\fR={0|1}
    Enable debug logging for the PMIx plugin.
    Defaults to 0.
    .IP

    .TP
    \fBPMIxDirectConn\fR={true|false}
    Disable direct launching of tasks. Default is "true".
    .IP

    .TP
    \fBPMIxDirectConnEarly\fR={true|false}
    Allow early connections to a parent node.
    Defaults to "false".
    .IP

    .TP
    \fBPMIxDirectConnUCX\fR={true|false}
    Allow PMIx to use UCX for communication.
    Defaults to "false".

    .TP
    \fBPMIxFenceBarrier\fR={true|false}
    Define whether to fence inter-node communication for data collection.
    Default is "false". See also \fBPMIxCollFence\fR.
    .IP

    .TP
    \fBPMIxNetDevicesUCX\fR=<\fIdevice type\fR>
    Type of network device to use for communication.
    Defaults to not being set.
    .IP

    .TP
    \fBPMIxTimeout\fR=<\fItime\fR>
    The maximum time (in seconds) allowed for communication between hosts to
    take place. Defaults to 300 seconds.
    .IP

    .TP
    \fBPMIxTlsUCX\fR=<\fItl1\fR>[,<\fItl2\fR>...]
    Sets the UCX_TLS variable which restricts the transports to use. The accepted
    values are defined in the UCX documentation and may vary between installations.
    Multiple values can be set and must be separated by commas.
    If not set, UCX tries to use all available transports and selects the best ones
    according to their performance capabilities and scale.
    Defaults to not being set.
