[slurm-users] Database cluster

[Diego Zuccato]

IIUC the database is not "critical": if it goes down, you lose access to 
some statistics. But job data gets cached anyway and the db will be 
updated when it comes back online.

We can have multiple controllers and multiple slurmdbds, but my understanding is that slurmdbd can be configured with a single MySQL server, so what do you do?  Do you have that “single MySQL server” be a cluster, such as Percona XtraDB?  Do you use MySQL replication, then manually switch to slurmdbd to a replication slave if the master goes down?  Do you do something else?
