You can ‘dump’ the info in the slurm database to a file and reload the file (here named cluster.cfg).

Dump the info with:

sacctmgr dump slurm_cluster file=cluster.cfg

You can load the info with:

sacctmgr load file=cluster.cfg

It saves all accounts, associations, and partition permissions.

All,

Curious if it is possible to copy my sacctmgr information (accounts, users, etc...) from one cluster to another?  For example slurm_cluster1 to slurm_cluster2.

I just tried "sacctmgr dump" as suggested above, and the dump file contains all account information needed for migrating to another cluster

If you plan to manage users and accounts by manually editing such a file, IMHO this is error-prone and not very transparent. For daily management I propose to use my Slurm accounts tool at
https://github.com/OleHolmNielsen/Slurm_tools/tree/master/slurmaccounts

This tool uses sacctmgr in a structured way based upon account configuration files which define your account hierarchy.

Best regards,
Ole
