Slurm

Install and configure a Slurm cluster on RHEL/CentOS or Debian/Ubuntu servers

Role Variables

All variables are optional. If nothing is set, the role will install the Slurm client programs, munge, and create a slurm.conf with a single localhost node and debug partition. See the defaults and example playbooks for examples.

For the various roles a slurm node can play, you can either set group names, or add values to a list, slurm_roles.

  • group slurmservers or slurm_roles: ['controller']
  • group slurmexechosts or slurm_roles: ['exec']
  • group slurmdbdservers or slurm_roles: ['dbd']

General config options for slurm.conf go in slurm_config, a hash. Keys are Slurm config option names.

Partitions and nodes go in slurm_partitions and slurm_nodes, lists of hashes. The only required key in the hash is name, which becomes the PartitionName or NodeName for that line. All other keys/values are placed on to the line of that partition or node.

Options for the additional configuration files acct_gather.conf, cgroup.conf and gres.conf may be specified in the slurm_acct_gather_config, slurm_cgroup_config (both of them hashes) and slurm_gres_config (list of hashes) respectively.

Set slurm_upgrade to true to upgrade the installed Slurm packages.

You can use slurm_user (a hash) and slurm_create_user (a bool) to pre-create a Slurm user so that uids match.

Note that this role requires root access, so enable become either globally in your playbook / on the commandline or just for the role like shown below.

Dependencies

None.

Example Playbooks

Minimal setup, all services on one node:

- name: Slurm all in One
  hosts: all
  vars:
    slurm_roles: ['controller', 'exec', 'dbd']
  roles:
    - role: galaxyproject.slurm
      become: True

More extensive example:

- name: Slurm execution hosts
  hosts: all
