Dear Jeffrey,

Thank you for your response. I have followed the steps as instructed. After
the copying the files to their respective locations "systemctl status
slurmctld.service" command gives me an error as follows:

(base) [nousheen at exxact system]$ systemctl daemon-reload
(base) [nousheen at exxact system]$ systemctl enable slurmctld.service
(base) [nousheen at exxact system]$ systemctl start slurmctld.service
(base) [nousheen at exxact system]$ systemctl status slurmctld.service
● slurmctld.service - Slurm controller daemon
   Loaded: loaded (/etc/systemd/system/slurmctld.service; enabled; vendor
preset: disabled)
