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

Hello,
I’m trying to build a version of SLURM on a VM for the purpose of
testing. The VM is running CentOS 5.10 and has
4 processors. Our HPC users will be faced with the task of changing
their submission scripts from a cluster running
SGE to one where they’ll be using SLURM.
I’d like to use the installation of SLURM in order that our users can
test simple scripts with;
_https://marylou.byu.edu/documentation/slurm/script-generator_
I’ve been following some notes from the Clustervision user portal
which suggests performing the following;
use yum to install numactl libraries
build hwloc which I did with; ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/hwloc/1.8.1
build munge which I did with; ./configure --prefix=/usr
--sysconfdir=/etc --localstatedir=/var && make && make install
build slurm which I did with; ./configure
--prefix=/usr/local/slurm/14.03.3-2/ --enable-multiple-slurmd
--with-hwloc=/usr/local/hwloc/1.8.1/ --enable-pam
When I try to start a slurm daemon it complains about not having any
configuration files ... which I can never find?
I’ve went with;
./configure --prefix=/usr/local/slurm/14.03.3-2/
--enable-multiple-slurmd --with-hwloc=/usr/local/hwloc/1.8.1/
--enable-pam --sysconfdir=/usr/local/slurm/14.03.3-2/
But that too failed to produce any config files.
Any ideas as to what I’m doing wrong here?
Thanks,
Steve Love.
