[slurm-users] slurmdbd not showing job accounting

2018-10-12 Thread Dave Botsch
Hi. I am setting up a new slurm cluster instance. And I just went through what I thought were the right steps to get job accounting going with slurmdbd. So I know that slurmdbd itself works as I can use the sacctmgr commands to add users and accounts, and the users cannot run jobs unless I first

In addition, fwiw, this login node will have a second network connection of course for campus with firewall setup to only allow ssh (and other essential) from campus. Also you may consider having some script developed to prevent folks from abusing the login node instead of using slurm for their
