Since a physical core (8 HTs) is assigned to one task, a maximum of 16 tasks per node can be asked (--ntasks-per-node), corresponding (as mentioned) to receive 8 logical cpus per task. The use of --cpus-per-task is hence discouraged as a sbatch directive, potentially leading to uncorrect incorrect allocation.

For instance:

#SBATCH -N 1

...

will result in having 32 logical cpus for the job cpuset, for instance 0-15, 64-79. Slurm automatically assign assigns the cpuset most appropriate to access the (2-per-socket) GPUs

...

If you have an hybrid MPI/OpenMP application, ask for a number of tasks so to obtain a number of logical cores equale equal to the product of the number of MPI processes * the number of OMP threads per task. For instance, for 4 MPI processes and 16 OMP threads per task, you need 64 logical cores, hence 8 physical cores:
