AccountingStorageType=accounting_storage/filetxt JobCompType=jobcomp/filetxt AccountingStorageLoc=/var/log/slurm/accounting JobCompLoc=/var/log/slurm/job_completions JobAcctGatherType=jobacct_gather/linux JobAcctGatherFrequency=30 But I get the following error as I restart slurm slurm_load_ctl_conf error: Unable to contact slurm controller (connect failure) Regards, Mahmood On Wed, Mar 14, 2018 at 6:49 AM, Chris Samuel <ch...@csamuel.org> wrote: > On Wednesday, 14 March 2018 9:39:50 PM AEDT Mahmood Naderan wrote: > >> Is it possible to set a global memory limit for a user? > > You can indeed, but you need the accounting database set up for that. > > Settings limits is documented here: > > https://slurm.schedmd.com/resource_limits.html > > and the accounting database info is here: > > https://slurm.schedmd.com/accounting.html > > Good luck! > Chris > -- > Chris Samuel : http://www.csamuel.org/ : Melbourne, VIC > > Regards, Mahmood
