Hi all,
I am working on upgrading a Slurm cluster from 20 -> 23. I was successfully able to upgrade to 22, however now that I am trying to go from 22 to 23, starting slurmdbd results in the following error being logged:
error: mysql_query failed: 1193 Unknown system variable 'wsrep_on'
I get that error in my log every startup, and it's benign. That variable only exists on a Galera Cluster, so seeing it on a simple mariadb instance is to be expected and benign.
When trying to start slurmctld, I get:
[2024-04-02T15:09:52.439] Couldn't find tres gres/gpumem in the database, creating. [2024-04-02T15:09:52.439] Couldn't find tres gres/gpuutil in the database, creating. [2024-04-02T15:09:52.440] fatal: Problem adding tres to the database, can't continue until database is able to make new tres
Any ideas what could be causing these errors? Is MariaDB 5.5 still officially supported?
Check permissions of your database user, it has to be able to create and alter tables.
