Fedora (and EPEL) slurm is split into a number of packages:

    slurm
    slurm-contribs
    slurm-devel
    slurm-doc
    slurm-gui
    slurm-libs
    slurm-nss_slurm
    slurm-openlava
    slurm-pam_slurm
    slurm-perlapi
    slurm-rrdtool
    slurm-slurmctld
    slurm-slurmd
    slurm-slurmdbd
    slurm-slurmrestd
    slurm-torque

You'll need to install at least slurm-slurmctld and probably few more 
packages on the head node and slurm-slurmd on the compute nodes.
