Hi

I see it in mine as well:

Before=multi-user.target slurmdbd.service shutdown.target

it's not defined in either unit so I think it's being inserted by systemd
as part of the "After" requirement in the slurmdbd unit.  From my (limited)
grasp of systemd, I don't think the "Before" ensures that slurmdbd would be
stopped if mysql stops, just that it's start command is issued before
slurmdbd's start command
