Thank you for your response, I hadn't considered that version 22 could be the
problem.
I am aware that we are not up to date, but we use the EPEL repo for our RPM
packages. Originally, we did not want to install .rpm directly because our
policy is to apply security updates every night via the repositories, but
unfortunately, in this case, it does not work. I think it is because only one
person is responsible for maintaining the packages for RHEL.
You should *NOT* use Slurm packages from the EPEL repository!! The Slurm
documentation recommends to exclude those packages, see
https://slurm.schedmd.com/upgrades.html#epel_repository
I have already reported the security issue, but at the moment it does not seem
possible to update: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2280545
RedHat doesn't provide support for Slurm, and if necessary you should
contact SchedMD to obtain Slurm support.
It appears from another ticket that the compilation fails for version 24:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2259935
I think this ticket only reports problems regarding older Slurm releases?
If the compilation fails, will the RPM package work on RHEL 9?
You should build your own Slurm RPM packages, and compilation failure
would indicate a bug somewhere!
Just as a test, I've now built RPM packages of the currently supported
Slurm releases 23.11.8 and 24.05.1 on a RockyLinux 9.4 system. The RPMs
have built without any issues or compilation errors at all! I haven't
tested these RPMs on our production cluster which runs EL8 :-)
I recommend that you consult the Slurm documentation page[1] and my Wiki
page for Slurm installation:
https://wiki.fysik.dtu.dk/Niflheim_system/Slurm_installation/ Remember to
install all prerequisite packages before building Slurm, as explained in
the Wiki!
Best regards,
Ole
