Thanks, I should have spotted that, although I don't understand the
difference between 'parent' and 'organisation' and in fact asked this
question:
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/slurm-users/f1vftgIRcVk
on the subject recently.
The dump indicates to me that a hierarchy is being set up via the
'parent' attribute. The output of 'sacctmgr' and what you point out
suggest that there is a separate hierarchy defined by 'organisation'.
In any case, I can't work out the the correct syntax to set the
organisation. The following doesn't produce an error but doesn't have
any effect:
$ sacctmgr modify account where name=geochemie set organization=geowiss
Nothing modified
and I still get:
$ sacctmgr list acc org=geowiss
Account Descr Org
---------- -------------------- --------------------
geographie geographie geowiss
geologie geologie geowiss
geophysik geophysik geowiss
meteorolo+ meteorologie geowiss
How do I set the organisation of an account? And why is it necessary if
'parent' is set?
I also struggled with these terms a while back, and my notes on setting
up accounts are in the Wiki page

The "parent" concept can be quite useful, depending on your needs. I
hope this helps a bit.
