...
h2. Install dependencies
First, "add the appropriate package repository for your distribution":{{ site.baseurl }}/install/install-manual-prerequisites.html#repos.
{% include 'note_python_sc' %}
On Red Hat-based systems:
~$ echo 'exclude=python2-llfuse' | sudo tee -a /etc/yum.conf
~$ sudo yum install python-arvados-fuse crunch-run arvados-docker-cleaner
{% include 'install_compute_docker' %}
{% include 'install_compute_fuse' %}
{% include 'install_docker_cleaner' %}
h2. Set up SLURM
Install SLURM following "the same process you used to install the Crunch dispatcher":install-crunch-dispatch.html#slurm.
h2. Copy configuration files from the dispatcher (API server)
The @slurm.conf@ and @/etc/munge/munge.key@ files need to be identical across the dispatcher and all compute nodes. Copy the files you created in the "Install the Crunch dispatcher":install-crunch-dispatch.html step to this compute node.
