slurmd confused of pid-file
Original post is here eklausmeier.goip.de/blog/2016/12-14-slurmd-confused-of-pid-file.
I wrote on SLURM used on Ubuntu here. As I moved to Arch Linux I of course use the fine AUR package slurm-llnl maintained by Gordian Edenhofer.
After upgrading to version 16.05.7-1 I noticed the following: If slurmd
is started by systemd
then the pid-file specified for systemd
in /lib/systemd/system/slurmd.service
(PIDFile
) should match the pid-file location (SlurmdPidFile
) given in /etc/slurm-llnl/slurm.conf
.
By the way, if one gets an error
slurm_receive_msg: Zero Bytes were transmitted or received
check your date and time of your nodes.
