The combination of GPFS, filetxt, and, in particular, such an old version
of Slurm is probably quite rare, so I suspect not many people will be
able to help you.  Unless, that is, it is a known problem, in which case
it has probably been fixed in a later version.  In addition, it now says
the following on the Slurm download page:

  Due to a security vulnerability (CVE-2016-10030), all versions of
  Slurm prior to 15.08.13 or 16.05.8 are no longer available.

So you need to do an update anyway.  And as the intermediate versions
are now no longer available, you basically just need to set up Slurm
again from scratch.

Sorry about that,

Loris
