I'm installing SLURM for a local cluster following SouthGreenPlatforms SLURM installation guide. However, I'm getting two different errors when I check the status of the compute nodes and master node.On the compute nodes, after running systemctl status slurmd.service, I get the following error:
slurmd.service - Slurm node daemon Loaded: loaded (/etc/systemd/system/slurmd.service; enabled; vendor preset: enabled) Active: active (running) since Fri 2024-03-22 00:09:33 UTC; 4min os ago Main PID: 1444 (slurmd) Tasks: 2 (limit: 2311) CGroup: /system.slice/slurmd.service -1444 /usr/sbin/slurmd -d /usr/sbin/slurmstepdMar 22 00:09:25 cnode1 systemd[1]: starting Slurm node daemon.Mar 22 00:09:32 cnode1 systemd[1]: slurmd.service: Can't open PID file /var/run/slurmd.pid (yet?) after start: No such file or directoryMar 22 00:09:33 cnode1 systemd[1]: started Slurm node daemon.If I run the systemctl status slurmctld.service command on the master node, I gives me:
