I use SaltStack to push out the slurm.conf file to all nodes and do a "scontrol reconfigure" of the slurmd, this makes management much easier across the cluster. You can also do service restarts from one point etc. Avoid NFS mounts for the config, if the mount locks up your screwed.
Pushing the slurm.conf (and other config files) to all cluster nodes may be done in several other ways:
1. Configless Slurm is ideal and simple to use, see https://wiki.fysik.dtu.dk/niflheim/Slurm_configuration#configless-slurm https://slurm.schedmd.com/configless_slurm.html 2. You can push the /etc/slurm directory with ClusterShell (clush --copy), see https://wiki.fysik.dtu.dk/niflheim/SLURM#clustershell https://clustershell.readthedocs.io/en/latest/intro.html /Ole
