Yep. I do it all the time when I forget to add a parent. Also when a project/account changes who owns it.

sacctmgr will also tell you what it is going to change and gives you 30 seconds to say yes, else it doesn't make the change.

Hi

I've added a new account using sbank and have now discovered it should have been added with the parent set. We've already accumulated a couple of months of user data so I dont just want to delete it and recreate it in the correct location.  I've had a read of the sacctmgr command and think I may be able to modify the account to set a parent but am a little unsure as I haven't seen any example of people doing it online

Is there any reason why the following wouldn't work?  I'm using version 19.05.7 of slurm.

sacctmgr modify account blah set parent=blahparent

Also would it be ok to make this change while the system is running?

Thanks
