So I’m associating the user with an account in this case called isg and after I 
restart slurm they can submit jobs. Below is how the user looks even before I 
restart slurm

sacctmgr show assoc format=account%20,user,cluster,partition where user=testuser
             Account       User    Cluster  Partition
-------------------- ---------- ---------- ----------
                 isg   testuser slurm_clu+

one thing that I did notice when I add the user I see this error in the 
slurmctld log

[2017-01-23T16:47:34.351] error: Update Association request from non-super user 
uid=450

UID 450 happens to be the slurm user

But when I make the changes I’m logged in as root.

Interesting. To the best of my knowledge, if you are using Accounting, all 
users actually need to be in an association - ie having a user account is 
insufficient.
An Association is a tuple consisting of: cluster, user, account and (optional) 
partition.
Is that the problem?

Hi,
     I’m having an issue creating new users on our cluster. After running the 
below commands slurm has to be restarted in order for that user to be able to 
run sbatch. Otherwise they get an error ( sbatch test-job.sh
sbatch: error: Batch job submission failed: Invalid account or 
account/partition combination specified)

sacctmgr create user name=testuser account=isg
sacctmgr modify user testuser set qos+=full
