SYNOPSIS

10       slurmdbd [OPTIONS...]
11
12

DESCRIPTION

14       slurmdbd  provides a secure enterprise-wide interface to a database for
15       Slurm. This is particularly useful for archiving accounting records.
16
17       OPTIONS
18
19       -D     Run slurmdbd in the foreground with logging copied to stdout.
20
21       -h     Help; print a brief summary of command options.
22
23       -n <value>
24              Set the daemon's nice value to the specified value, typically  a
25              negative number.
26
27       -R[comma separated cluster name list]
28              Reset  the  lft  and rgt values of the associations in the given
29              cluster list.  Lft and rgt values are used to distinguish  hier‐
30              archical  groups  in the slurm accounting database.  This option
31              should be very rarely used.
32
33       -v     Verbose operation. Multiple -v's increase verbosity.
34
35       -V     Print version information and exit.

37

CORE FILE LOCATION

39       If slurmdbd is started with the -D option then the core  file  will  be
40       written  to  the  current  working  directory.  Otherwise if LogFile in
41       "slurmdbd.conf" is a fully qualified path name (starting with a slash),
42       the  core  file  will be written to the same directory as the log file,
43       provided SlurmUser has write permission on  the  directory.   Otherwise
44       the core file will be written to "/var/tmp/" as a last resort.  If nei‐
45       ther of the above directories have write permission for  SlurmUser,  no
46       core file will be produced.

SIGNALS

50       SIGTERM SIGINT
51              slurmdbd  will shutdown cleanly, waiting for in-progress rollups
52              to finish.
53
54       SIGABRT
55              slurmdbd will perform a core dump, then exit.  In-progress oper‐
56              ations are killed.
57
58       SIGHUP Reloads  the  slurm  configuration  files,  similar to 'scontrol
59              reconfigure'.
60
61       SIGUSR2
62              Reread the log level from the configs, and then reopen  the  log
63              file.  This should be used when setting up logrotate(8).
64
65       SIGCHLD SIGUSR1 SIGTSTP SIGXCPU SIGQUIT SIGPIPE SIGALRM
66              These signals are explicitly ignored.

NOTES

70       It  may  be useful to experiment with different slurmctld specific con‐
71       figuration parameters using a distinct configuration file  (e.g.  time‐
72       outs).   However,  this  special configuration file will not be used by
73       the slurmd daemon or the Slurm programs, unless you  specifically  tell
74       each of them to use it. If you desire changing communication ports, the
75       location of the temporary file system,  or  other  parameters  used  by
76       other   Slurm   components,   change  the  common  configuration  file,
77       slurm.conf.
