Thankyou Lachlan.
Actually I was being old school and running /etc/inir.d/slurm start
(yes - I know about systemd!)
I will try systemd
for what its worth /var/log/slurm.log on the compute node reads:
[2016-04-12T03:52:18.813] Message aggregation disabled

I think I saw something like this just now - are you running:
systemctl start slurm
or
systemctl start slurmd ?
And slurmctld is running on the head?
Cheers

I am working on an OpenHPC/Warewulf cluster.
When I start the slurmd service on the compute nodes the systemctl sits there
for a long time,
then reports:
Starting slurm (via systemctl): Job for slurm.service failed because a timeout
was exceeded. See "systemctl status slurm.service" and "journalctl -xe" for
details.
[FAILED]
However a slurmd process is started on the compute node.
On the head node sinfo says the compute node is down and Not Responding
I don;t expect my problem to be solved by the list, but would appreciate some
diagnostics.
debug level set to 3 in slurm.conf
