Actually, I found a 20.02.6 version that spent quite some time in the Debian repositories (that would be two major releases after 18.08.5 and therefore should be OK). I was able to build Debian packages for Buster from that source package, and *might* be able to use the dbd package to obtain a database dump that could be further processed by Bullseye's proper slurmdbd (20.11.4). There would be no need to use a VM, or a RH system. > That would still be a bit of a faff and so still may not be worth it. It's perhaps worth the attempt - but if that fails, I'd just go on with a fresh setup (which could easily be scripted for most of the gory details).
