Hi, My first post to the list, so apologies if this is a FAQ,
My configuration has two nodes allocated for Slurm masters, with a highly-available NFS server mounting a filesystem across the two nodes. I need advice on the best configuration. I naively thought of having a single MariaDB database located in the NFS server, with slurmctld, slurmdbd and mariadb running on both slurm nodes, with only one slurmdbd/mariadb actively touching the database at any one time. slurm.conf ---------- SlurmctldHost=slurm1(a.b.c.1) SlurmctldHost=slurm2(a.b.c.2) AccountingStorageHost=slurm1 AccountingStorageBackupHost=slurm2 slurmdbd.conf ------------- DbdHost=slurm1 DbdBackupHost=slurm2 StorageHost=localhost But MariaDB doesn't seem to like (possibly understandably) two mysql daemons accessing a single database instance from two servers. What would be the best way to configure this setup? Thanks in advance -- Peter
