Greetings,
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">New to the forum and new to SLURM. I have 5 servers. 1 can be the master/headnode and 4 can be the compute node. My goal is to help a post-doc run “jobs” on the cluster and utilizing all the CPU’s and RAM from the 4 compute nodes. The post-doc
 runs radiation Monte Carlo simulation, RNA/DNA sequencing, DESEQ..etc</div>
<div class="">I understand this is a very general question and i am sure there is a lot to take in consideration but if someone could guide through simple steps on how to install and configure SLURM on ubuntu for 1 master/headnode and 4 compute nodes I would
 be very grateful.</div>
<div class="">Thank you for your time and help.</div>
