I did that but got the same errors.

slurmdbd.log contains by the way the following:

   [2017-11-20T12:39:04.178] error: Couldn't find the specified plugin
   name for accounting_storage/mysql looking at all files
   [2017-11-20T12:39:04.179] error: cannot find accounting_storage
   plugin for accounting_storage/mysql
   [2017-11-20T12:39:04.179] error: cannot create accounting_storage
   context for accounting_storage/mysql
   [2017-11-20T12:39:04.179] fatal: Unable to initialize
   accounting_storage/mysql accounting storage plugin

It seems it lacks the accounting_storage_mysql.so:

   $ ls /usr/lib64/slurm/accounting_storage_*
   /usr/lib64/slurm/accounting_storage_filetxt.so
   /usr/lib64/slurm/accounting_storage_none.so
   /usr/lib64/slurm/accounting_storage_slurmdbd.so

However, I did install the slurm-sql rpm package.

Any idea about what's failing?


Thanks

    I've just found out the file `/var/run/slurmdbd.pid` does not even
    exist.



The pid file is the "process id" - it's only there if the process is running. So when slurmdbd is not running, it wont be there. Supposedly. Sometimes I do "touch /var/run/slurmdbd.pid" and try again?

I've also found that using the host's short name is preferable to localhost. Make sure the host's short name is in /etc/hosts too.

hostname -s

will give you the short name
