Hello everyone,
Here it comes everything I've done. - About Ole's answer: Yes, we have slurm as the user to control munge. Following your comment, I have changed the ownership of the munge files and tried to start munge as munge user. However, it also failed. Also, I first installed munge from a repository. I've seen your suggestion of installing from EPEL. So I uninstalled and installed again. Same result - About SELinux: It is disables - The output of ps -ef | grep munge is: root 5340 5153 0 10:18 pts/0 00:00:00 grep --color=auto munge - The outputs of munge -n is: Failed to access "/var/run/munge/munge.socket.2": No such file or directory - Same for unmunge - Output for sudo systemctl status --full munge ● munge.service - MUNGE authentication service Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/munge.service; enabled; vendor preset: disabled) Active: failed (Result: exit-code) since Fri 2020-05-29 10:15:52 CEST; 4min 18s ago Docs: man:munged(8) Process: 5333 ExecStart=/usr/sbin/munged (code=exited, status=1/FAILURE) May 29 10:15:52 roos21.organ.su.se systemd[1]: Starting MUNGE authentication service...

It is the same message I get in the nodes that DO work. All nodes are sync in time and date with the central node ________________________________ From: slurm-users <slurm-users-boun...@lists.schedmd.com> on behalf of Ole Holm Nielsen <ole.h.niel...@fysik.dtu.dk> Sent: Friday, May 29, 2020 9:56:10 AM To: slurm-users@lists.schedmd.com Subject: Re: [slurm-users] Problem with permisions.

It's a pretty bad idea to lower the security just for the sake of convenience! /Ole > On Fri, May 29, 2020 at 12:08 PM Sudeep Narayan Banerjee > <snbaner...@iitgn.ac.in <mailto:snbaner...@iitgn.ac.in>> wrote: > > I have not checked on the CentOS7.8 > a) if /var/run/munge folder does not exist then please double check > whether munge has been installed or not > b) user root or sudo user to do > ps -ef | grep munge > kill -9 <PID> //where PID is the Process ID for munge (if the > process is running at all); else > > which munged > /etc/init.d/munge start > > please let me know the the output of: > > |$ munge -n| > > |$ munge -n | unmunge| > > |$ sudo systemctl status --full munge > > | > > Thanks & Regards, > Sudeep Narayan Banerjee > System Analyst | Scientist B > Indian Institute of Technology Gandhinagar > Gujarat, INDIA > > > On Fri, May 29, 2020 at 11:55 AM Bjørn-Helge Mevik > <b.h.me...@usit.uio.no <mailto:b.h.me...@usit.uio.no>> wrote: > > Ferran Planas Padros <ferran.pad...@su.se > <mailto:ferran.pad...@su.se>> writes: > > > I run the command as slurm user, and the /var/log/munge > folder does belong to slurm. > > For security reasons, I strongly advise that you run munged as a > separate user, which is unprivileged and not used for anything else. > > -- > Regards, > Bjørn-Helge Mevik, dr. scient, > Department for Research Computing, University of Oslo >
