HP XC System Software Installation Guide Version 3.0

In addition, to complete this configuration, you will need to provide
1) the name or IP address of the NIS master, and
2) the NIS domain name hosted by the NIS master
Enter the name or IP address of the external NIS master: [] NIS_IP_address
Enter the NIS domain hosted by the NIS master: [] your_NIS_domain

7. Configure SLURM:
Do you want to configure SLURM now? (y/n) [y]:y
Do one of the following:
• If you intend to install LSF-HPC with SLURM , enter y.
• If you intend to install standard LSF do not install SLURM; in that case, enter n.
If you are installing SLURM, define a SLURM user name and accept all default responses. Output looks
different if you assigned the resource_management role to one or more additional nodes because
you will be prompted to assign the master and backup controller nodes.
This SLURM configuration needs a special SLURM user. The SLURM
controller daemons will be run by this user, and certain SLURM
runtime files will be owned by this user.
Enter the SLURM username [slurm]: Enter
User 'slurm' does not exist.
If this user account is created here, it will not have login
access. Do you want to create this user? (y/n) [y]: Enter
n16 is the only node with the Resource Management
role. Therefore the SLURM Master Controller daemon will be set up
on this node, and there will be no SLURM Backup Controller.
The current Compute Node configuration is:
NodeName=xc6n[11-16] Procs=2
NOTE: The only Partition created by default is the lsf
partition. If you want additional partitions, configure
them manually in the /hptc_cluster/slurm/etc/slurm.conf file.
The current Node Partition configuration is:
PartitionName=lsf RootOnly=YES Shared=FORCE Nodes=xc6n[11-16]
Do you want to enable SLURM-controlled user-access to the
compute nodes? (y/n) [n]: n

SLURM configuration complete. Press 'Enter' to continue: Enter

By default, all compute nodes in the HP XC system are accessible by any user after their user
accounts have been set up. This prompt enables you to restrict individual access to each
compute node to the user who currently has the compute node reserved within SLURM.
It is important that you assign a login role to each node on which you expect users to be able
to log in and use the system. If you answer yes here and configure all nodes with the compute
role (the default), but you do not configure any nodes with the login role, non-root users will
not be allowed to log in to the system.
