[slurm-dev] Re: installing slurm on CentOS 5.10
Hi Steve, SLURM has a nice config file generator which you can access via a web browser you are looking for a file called configurator.html or configurator.easy.html on my system it ended up in /prefix/share/doc/slurm-14.03.3-2/html/ so on yours it should be /usr/local/slurm/14.03.3-2/share/doc/14.03.3-2/html/configurator.html most important is to get the Control Machine hostname right and you define some nodes with a similar configuration to your real nodes the defaults for the rest should be fine for your purposes Antony On 24/06/2014 15:37, Love, Steve W. wrote: Hello, I’m trying to build a version of SLURM on a VM for the purpose of testing.

Steve, Our script generator was rewritten recently and released on Github: https://github.com/BYUHPC/BYUJobScriptGenerator. You might want to try that out and tailor it for your needs, though we have no problem with people linking to our site directly if you don't want to host your own version.
