My reading of the error message is this: - you have SLURM 18.08.7 installed from some RPM package which is *not available from a YUM repository* - ElastiCluster runs `yum install slurm` so YUM only finds the `slurm-*` packages coming from @verdurin's repository (which ATM only contains SLURM 18.08..5) - so YUM tries to downgrade SLURM packages to 18.08.5 - *but* some of the packages you have installed right now (`slurm-sjstat`, `slurm-contribs`, `slurm-sjobexit`) are "obsolete"[1], so they would be removed -- which seems not to be allowed without additional options to YUM.[2] I do not know YUM (or CentOS) for the matter to know how exactly to cope with this situation. Can you try setting `obsoletes=0` in `/etc/yum.conf` (as explained in [2]) on all nodes and see if this fixes the issue? You will end up with SLURM 18.08.5 on the cluster, though.
