Good morning, is there anyone out there, running Slurm on a Debian Stretch platform? I've been maintaining a HTCondor pool for quite some time, and recently started an attempt to convert some of the compute nodes to form a Slurm cluster instead.
I ran into some issues I could only partially resolve yet: - magic UID for "slurm" user, but none for "munge" (and since the munge key has to be shared, unique UIDs are essential) - daemons don't start (timeout) when using "service ... start", running with -D and backgrounding doesn't show anything weird - "scontrol reconfig" tends to kill the slurmctld Upgrading to Buster isn't an option yet, and I doubt the issues would vaporize by upgrading. Any suggestions?
