Hi Folks, I'm trying to install slurm (2.6.2) onto our Cray XT30 -- I've been following the guide at http://slurm.schedmd.com/cray.html and Gerrit's paper from CUG11, but I've got a few questions about daemon placement and configuration.
1) we use eslogin nodes (and other external services) so the instructions to enable the cray job pam module will fail as /proc/cray/<whatever> -- we can (and have) enabled this on the internal service nodes -- is this an issue? 2) I'm basically replicating our current PBS Pro daemon placement -- using the mom nodes for the slurmd, and our aux node (currently running flexlm) as the slurmctld (I'm not using our sdb node as that can't mount the common NFS share with the slurm binaries/configs) -- is this the right approach? 3) we're using a central slurmdbd on a separate host (plan to get all the site accounting from the various clusters together) -- as we use LDAP for all our user details, is there a quick way to seed the initial 'sacctmgr add user <...>' stage already about (or do I hack up an ldapsearch script to do it)? Many thanks Andrew
