how to enable slurm job accounting? #12

Open fengggli opened 2 years ago

Hi!

Description

I am trying to rebuild my slurm cluster to JetStream2 following this guide (https://xcri-docs.readthedocs.io/en/latest/toolkits/vc-installation-js2/)

I am using the current "rocky-linux" branch and the jetstream featured rocky image, as suggested by the above guide. I can build the cluster correctly, but by default the job accounting is disabled:

[rocky@slurm-headnode-tt ~]$ sacct -Pj12
Slurm accounting storage is disabled

Question

Is there any guide/suggestsion on how to enable job accounting correctly, for Cluster created using the "rocky-linux" branch?

PS

I used to have an old fork (a914cc084f) of this repo that I use to deploy cluster in JetStream1. for my JetStream1 deployment, I could uncomment those two lines in /etc/slurm/slurm.conf for the job accounting to work:

AccountingStorageType=accounting_storage/filetxt
AccountingStorageLoc=/var/log/slurm/slurm_jobacct.log

However, this does not work for the newer deployment, and it seems that the filetext accounting storage type is deprecated in newer slurm.

Thanks! Feng
