[slurm-users] Can't start slurmdbd

[Juan A. Cordero Varelaq]

I did that but got the same errors.

slurmdbd.log contains by the way the following:

    [2017-11-20T12:39:04.178] error: Couldn't find the specified plugin
    name for accounting_storage/mysql looking at all files
    [2017-11-20T12:39:04.179] error: cannot find accounting_storage
    plugin for accounting_storage/mysql
    [2017-11-20T12:39:04.179] error: cannot create accounting_storage
    context for accounting_storage/mysql
    [2017-11-20T12:39:04.179] fatal: Unable to initialize
    accounting_storage/mysql accounting storage plugin

It seems it lacks the accounting_storage_mysql.so:

    $ ls /usr/lib64/slurm/accounting_storage_*
    /usr/lib64/slurm/accounting_storage_filetxt.so
    /usr/lib64/slurm/accounting_storage_none.so
    /usr/lib64/slurm/accounting_storage_slurmdbd.so

However, I did install the slurm-sql rpm package.

Any idea about what's failing?


Thanks
