[slurm-users] unable to start slurmd process.

[Riebs, Andy]

Navin,

As you can see, systemd provides very little service-specific information. For slurm, you really need to go to the slurm logs to find out what happened.

Hint: A quick way to identify problems like this with slurmd and slurmctld is to run them with the “-Dvvv” option, causing them to log to your window, and usually causing the problem to become immediately obvious.

For example,

# /usr/local/slurm/sbin/slurmd -Dvvvv

Just it ^C when you’re done, if necessary. Of course, if it doesn’t fail when you run it this way, it’s time to look elsewhere.

Hi Team,

when i am trying to start the slurmd process i am getting the below error.

2020-06-11T13:11:58.652711+02:00 oled3 systemd[1]: Starting Slurm node daemon...

Slurm version is 17.11.8

The server and slurm is running from long time and we have not made any changes but today when i am starting it is giving this error message.
Any idea what could be wrong here.

Regards
Navin.
