Actually, if sinfo is responding, then slurmctld is running! I would
check the slurmctld log on your head node and the slurmd log on the
compute node(s) to look for hints regarding communication problems.
For example, can you ping back and forth between the 2 nodes? Do you
have a firewall running on either or both nodes? etc.

I will try systemd�

hints on diagnostics please?
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

When I start the slurmd service on the
compute nodes the systemctl sits there for a
long time,
then reports:

However a slurmd process is started on the

On the head node
sinfo says the compute node is down and Not

I don;t expect my problem to be solved by the
list, but would appreciate some diagnostics.
