[slurm-users] slurmd startup problem

[Brian Andrus]

I suspect you may have set some "frontendname" or "frontendaddr" in your 
slurm.conf that triggered that.

A FrontEnd is a node that is used to execute batch scripts rather than 
compute nodes (Cray ALPS systems). If that is not you, you should not 
set it.
