Now we need to give SLURM a configuration file. On Debian-based systems, this is installed at @/etc/slurm-llnl/slurm.conf@. On Red Hat-based systems, this is installed at @/etc/slurm/slurm.conf@. Here's an example @slurm.conf@:
<notextile>
-<pre>
-ControlMachine=uuid_prefix.your.domain
+<pre><code>
+ControlMachine=<span class="userinput">ClusterID.example.com</class>
SlurmctldPort=6817
SlurmdPort=6818
AuthType=auth/munge
NodeName=compute[0-255]
PartitionName=compute Nodes=compute[0-255] Default=YES Shared=YES
-</pre>
+</code></pre>
</notextile>
h3. SLURM configuration essentials
Each hostname in @slurm.conf@ must also resolve correctly on all SLURM worker nodes as well as the controller itself. Furthermore, the hostnames used in the configuration file must match the hostnames reported by @hostname@ or @hostname -s@ on the nodes themselves. This applies to the ControlMachine as well as the worker nodes.
For example:
-* In @slurm.conf@ on control and worker nodes: @ControlMachine=uuid_prefix.your.domain@
+* In @slurm.conf@ on control and worker nodes: @ControlMachine=ClusterID.example.com@
* In @slurm.conf@ on control and worker nodes: @NodeName=compute[0-255]@
-* In @/etc/resolv.conf@ on control and worker nodes: @search uuid_prefix.your.domain@
-* On the control node: @hostname@ reports @uuid_prefix.your.domain@
-* On worker node 123: @hostname@ reports @compute123.uuid_prefix.your.domain@
+* In @/etc/resolv.conf@ on control and worker nodes: @search ClusterID.example.com@
+* On the control node: @hostname@ reports @ClusterID.example.com@
+* On worker node 123: @hostname@ reports @compute123.ClusterID.example.com@
