In August 2017 I created an account, a user and a corresponding association. Today I found myself unable to create a new association with a new user and the account from August. Looking into the Slurm database, I saw that the account was missing from 'acct_table'. However, trying to add it with $ sacctmgr -v add account agschmidt parent=chemie gave me sacctmgr: Accounting storage SLURMDBD plugin loaded with AuthInfo=(null) No associations created. I have ended up having to insert a record directly into the database, which seems to have worked in that I was then able to create the new association. This is all with 17.02.11.
