I installed SLURM by compiling RPMs from slurm-15.08.7.tar.bz2. I then
installed every package that it created. I noticed the following
systemd unit files are included:
/usr/lib/systemd/system/slurmd.service
/usr/lib/systemd/system/slurmdbd.service
/usr/lib/systemd/system/slurmctld.service
... but also comes with:
/etc/rc.d/init.d/slurmdbd
/etc/rc.d/init.d/slurm
I'm confused by this. Why are there both init and systemd files?
Also: slurm, slurmd, slurmctld, slurmdbd... Who does what? Who needs
to run on what machines (head, login, and compute)?
