[slurm-users] 答复: 答复: Is there bug in PrivateData=jobs option of slurmdbd?

Well, you got the point. We didn’t configure ldap on slurm database node. After configuring ldap authorization the PrivateData option finally worked as expected.

Thanks for the assistance.

Ok.

You may want to check your slurmdbd host(s) and ensure the users are known there. If it does not know who a user is, it will not allow access to the data.

If you are running sssd, clear the cache and such too.

I can make sure the test job is running (of course in the default time window) when doing sacct query, and here is the new test record which describe it more clearly:

I suspect your job fell out of the default time window for sacct.

Add a time window that you know includes when the job ran and you will likely see it.

Hello,

 

We find a strange behavior about sacct and PrivateData option of slurmdbd. Our original configuration is setting “PrivateData = accounts,jobs,usage,users,reservations” in slurm.conf and not setting “PrivateData” in slurmdbd.conf. At this point, common user can see all others job information with sacct. Now we add option “PrivateData =jobs” to slurmdbd.conf, then common users even can’t see their own jobs using sacct.

 

According.to https://slurm.schedmd.com/slurmdbd.conf.html , setting “jobs” in PrivateData should only prevent user from viewing others’ job. Why it also hide jobs submit by user itself from sacct query?

 

The test records as below:
