+    Initialize a Dask cluster using Slurm
+
+    Using Slurm, the user launches 3 or more tasks, usually with the 'srun' command.
+    The first task becomes the scheduler, the second task becomes the client, and the
+    remaining tasks become workers.  Each task identifies its task ID using the
+    'SLURM_PROCID' environment variable, which is like the MPI rank.  The scheduler
+    address is communicated using the 'scheduler_file' keyword argument.

+        Number of bytes before spilling data to disk.  This can be an

+    nanny : bool
+        Start workers in nanny process for management (deprecated, use worker_class instead)

+        Options to pass to workers
+    scheduler_file : str
