> I have a Wiki page describing how to install Munge and Slurm on CentOS 7:
Thanks Ole, there's some good notes in there I'll use. My original question was more a packaging issue - In this case I don't mind installing the rest of the slurm binaries, but ideally I'd like our slurmdbd host to be just that. slurmdbd alone (and as few other installed applications as possible). %if %{slurm_with munge} %package munge Summary: Slurm authentication and crypto implementation using Munge Group: System Environment/Base Requires: slurm munge BuildRequires: munge-devel munge-libs Obsoletes: slurm-auth-munge %description munge Slurm authentication and crypto implementation using Munge.
