HI John, Each time i enabled/started slurmctld the error was that the slurmctld.service could not be find or did not exist when in fact it existed in the correct directory /etc/systemd/system. Same with slurmdbd.service.

I followed the steps on the same site and am careful with all the steps but i still cannot make it work. Some people say that Ubuntu has packages for SLURM and i dont have to deal with downloading tar ball and make sure that all the files go to the right place.

Eric F. Alemany<mailto:ealem...@stanford.edu> April 25, 2018 3:27 PM Greetings, New to the forum and new to SLURM. I have 5 servers. 1 can be the master/headnode and 4 can be the compute node. My goal is to help a post-doc run “jobs” on the cluster and utilizing all the CPU’s and RAM from the 4 compute nodes. The post-doc runs radiation Monte Carlo simulation, RNA/DNA sequencing, DESEQ..etc I understand this is a very general question and i am sure there is a lot to take in consideration but if someone could guide through simple steps on how to install and configure SLURM on ubuntu for 1 master/headnode and 4 compute nodes I would be very grateful. Thank you for your time and help. Best, Eric _____________________________________________________________________________________________________ Eric F.
