[slurm-users] Secondary Unix group id of users not being issued in interactive srun command

[Walls, Mitchell]

Do you see the uid in /sys/fs/cgroup? (i.e. find /sys/fs/cgroup -name "*71953*"). If not that could point to cgroup config.

Hi Remi,

 Yes it does return the same id. See below:
johndoe at ecolonnelli:~ $ id
uid=71953(johndoe) gid=100026(Faculty_Collab) groups=100026(Faculty_Collab),100181(ecolonnelli_access)
johndoe at ecolonnelli:~ $ id johndoe
uid=71953(johndoe) gid=100026(Faculty_Collab) groups=100026(Faculty_Collab),1000(projectsbrasil),1003(core),1549(rais),1550(rfb),1552(polconnfirms),1558(vpce),1559(rfb_all),1563(johndoe),100181(ecolonnelli_access)

We have added it as a compute node to our cluster via Slurm. When running an srun interactive session on that server,it would seem that the LDAP groups shadow the local groups.

The difference between the first and the second command could be the UID used for the resolution. The first command calls getgroups() syscall using the UID of the shell. The second command resolves johndoe UID through nsswitch stack then looks after the groups of this UID.

Do you have johndoe declared in both local /etc/passwd and LDAP directory with different UID?

Do `id` and `id johndoe` return the same UID?
