Hello,
I’d like to ask if there is any safe method to rename an existing slurm
user to new username with the same uid?
As for linux itself, it’s quite common to have 2 user share the same uid.
So if we already have 2 system users, for example Bob(uid=1500) and
HPCBob(uid=1500), and the HPCBob is the existing slurm user, how can we
rename it to Bob without lost of user’s history job records or
associations? Do we have to manually edit the slurm database?
Slurm differentiates between users and accounts.
Just add the new user to the existing slurm account, and delete or leave
the old one.
I don't think there is anyway to rename a slurm account though.
Does not look like it from the sacctmgr docs at least.
