Automate job lmod environment setup based on node
by Daniel UB 27 Jan '25

27 Jan '25

Greetings ! We're using Slurm 23.11.8 in a small cluster . The control node shares via NFS the directory /clusterprograms with the compute nodes (using the same name as mountpoint) to provide access to available software. The users are instructed to use lmod<https://lmod.readthedocs.io/en/latest/060_locating.html> (module load/avail/purge) to setup their job's runtime environment. We have the software and modules at /clusterprograms distributed like this: /clusterprograms/ ├── common ├── gpu/ │ ├── cuda8/ │ └── cuda10/ └── cpu/ ├── intel/ └── amd/ We configured the /etc/profile.d/ directory on each node so ,when we access them directly (via ssh) the paths used by module (MODULEPATH) are only these: * /home/<user>/modulefiles * /clusterprograms/common/modules * /clusterprograms/<processor vendor or cuda version>/modules The exception is the control/login node, which only has /home/<user>/modulefiles and /clusterprograms/common/modules The issue we have now is this: We are looking for a safe and practical way to automate the reconfiguration of MODULEPATH<https://lmod.readthedocs.io/en/latest/077_ref_counting.html> in the compute nodes when a job is submitted. For now, the only method that is "working" is the following TaskProlog script, but it forces the users to load the modules inside the scripts that may be called by srun steps, rather than being able to load them in the job base step: #!/bin/bash if [[ -n "${SLURM_JOB_CONSTRAINTS}" ]]; then echo "export ORIGINAL_MPATH=${MODULEPATH}" IFS=',' read -ra JOB_ARCH_CONSTRAINTS <<< "$SLURM_JOB_CONSTRAINTS" for constraint in "${JOB_ARCH_CONSTRAINTS[@]}"; do case "${constraint}" in cuda*) echo "export MODULEPATH=/clusterprograms/gpu/${constraint}:${MODULEPATH}" ;; intel-*) echo "export MODULEPATH=/clusterprograms/cpu/intel/${constraint}:${MODULEPATH}" ;; amd-*) echo "export MODULEPATH=/clusterprograms/cpu/amd/${constraint}:${MODULEPATH}" ;; esac done fi Is there any better way to do this ? How is that it doesn't work if we use Prolog ? I tried using the --export option but it doesn't work, since the control node has MODULEPATH set via the main shell profiles.

Problems with slurmdbd on Ubuntu 24.04
by karl＠lovink.net 27 Jan '25

Hello, Last weekend, I updated my server to ubuntu 24.04 and instead of using my own compiled version of slurm, I switched to the version (23.11.4) that comes with Ubuntu 24.04. Since then, I have been having problems with slurmdbd. I get the following error message: slurmdbd: error: issue making get_lineage procedure slurmdbd: accounting_storage/as_mysql: init: Accounting storage MYSQL plugin failed slurmdbd: debug2: wsrep_on=0 slurmdbd: error: Couldn't load specified plugin name for accounting_storage/mysql: Plugin init() callback failed slurmdbd: error: cannot create accounting_storage context for accounting_storage/mysql slurmdbd: fatal: Unable to initialize accounting_storage/mysql accounting storage plugin My /etc/slurm/slurmdbd.conf looks like this: AuthType=auth/munge DebugLevel=debug5 DbdHost=localhost DbdPort=3306 StorageLoc=slurm_acct_db StoragePass=<password> StorageType=accounting_storage/mysql StorageUser=slurm SlurmUser=admina PluginDir=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/slurm-wlm ArchiveEvents=yes ArchiveJobs=yes ArchiveResvs=yes ArchiveSteps=no ArchiveSuspend=no ArchiveTXN=no ArchiveUsage=no AuthInfo=/var/run/munge/munge.socket.2 PurgeEventAfter=1month PurgeJobAfter=12month PurgeResvAfter=1month PurgeStepAfter=1month PurgeSuspendAfter=1month PurgeTXNAfter=12month PurgeUsageAfter=24month LogFile=/var/log/slurm/slurmdbd.log PidFile=/var/run/slurmdbd.pid NOTE: Removing the PluginDir directive makes no difference.

Slurm version 24.11.1 is now available

Re: Slurm "showpartitions" tool has been updated

Hi Robert, What's your version of Slurm? We run 24.05.5. The showpartitions tools compacts the list of nodenames using "scontrol show hostlistsorted <nodelist>". Can you please check your scontrol manual page if "hostlistsorted" is documented? Does the command work without -N?

Dear Slurm users, The "showpartitions" tool prints a Slurm cluster partition status overview with 1 line per partition. Color coding helps locating under- or over-utilized partitions. The Slurm "showpartitions" tool has now been updated with a new "-N" flag which prints the nodename list for each partition. You can download this tool from https://github.com/OleHolmNielsen/Slurm_tools/tree/master/partitions If you have any issues or suggestions, please write to Ole.H.Nielsen(a)fysik.dtu.dk or open an issue on GitHub.

job_container/tmpfs and srun.
by Phill Harvey-Smith 17 Jan '25

17 Jan '25

Hi all, On our setup we are using job_container/tmpfs to give each job it's own temp space. Since our compute nodes have reasonably sized disks for tasks that do a lot of disk I/O on user's data we have asked users to copy their data to the local disk at the beginning of the task and (if needed) copy it back at the end. This saves lots of NFS thrashing slowing down both the task and the NFS servers. However some of our users are having problems with this, their initial sbatch script will create a temp directory in their private /tmp copy their data to it and then try to srun a program. The srun will fall over as it doesn't seem to have have access to the copied data. I suspect this is because the srun task is getting it's own private /tmp. So my question is, is there a way to have the srun task inherit the /tmp of the initial sbatch? I'll include a sample of the script our user is using below. If any further information is required please feel free to ask. Cheers. Phill. #!/usr/bin/bash #SBATCH --nodes 1 #SBATCH --ntasks-per-node=1 #SBATCH --cpus-per-task=1 #SBATCH --time=00:00:10 #SBATCH --mem-per-cpu=3999 #SBATCH --output=script_out.log #SBATCH --error=script_error.log # The above options puts the STDOUT and STDERR of sbatch in # log files prefixed with 'script_'. # Create a randomly-named directory under /tmp jobtmpdir=$(mktemp -d) # Register a function to try and cleanup in case of job failure cleanup_handler() { echo "Cleaning up ${jobtmpdir}" rm -rf ${jobtmpdir} } trap 'cleanup_handler' SIGTERM EXIT # Change working directory to this directory cd ${jobtmpdir} # Copy the executable and input files from # where the job was submitted to the temporary directory. cp ${SLURM_SUBMIT_DIR}/a.out . cp ${SLURM_SUBMIT_DIR}/input.txt . # Run the executable, handling the collection of stdout # and stderr ourselves by redirecting to file srun ./a.out 2> task_error.log > task_out.log # Copy output data back to the submit directory. cp output.txt ${SLURM_SUBMIT_DIR} cp task_out.log ${SLURM_SUBMIT_DIR} cp task_error.log ${SLURM_SUBMIT_DIR} # Cleanup cd ${SLURM_SUBMIT_DIR} cleanup_handler

Environment Variables per Queue
by Vitorio Cargnini 14 Jan '25

14 Jan '25

Hello, Can environment variables be set up based on a specific queue? How do I set up the environment variables for a given queue? Like we are deploying SLURM to control our jobs of simulation using VCS, and we don't want to make public the LM_LICENSE environment variable to all users. So we would like to set it on the queue once a job is started on that queue would have that environment variable. Regards, Vitorio
