# Scenario 3: Spot Instance running multi-node jobs is interrupted
<a name="multi-node-v3"></a>

The job fails with a state code of `NODE_FAIL`, and the job is requeued (unless `--no-requeue` was specified when the job was submitted). If the node is a static node, it's replaced. If the node is a dynamic node, the node is terminated and reset. Other nodes that were running the terminated jobs might be allocated to other pending jobs, or scaled down after the configured [`SlurmSettings`](Scheduling-v3.md#Scheduling-v3-SlurmSettings) / [`ScaledownIdletime`](Scheduling-v3.md#yaml-Scheduling-SlurmSettings-ScaledownIdletime) time has passed.
