wiki.conf(5) Slurm configuration file wiki.conf(5)
NAME
wiki.conf - Slurm configuration file for wiki and wiki2 scheduler plugins
DESCRIPTION
wiki.conf is an ASCII file which describes wiki and wiki2 scheduler specific SLURM configuration information. The file location can be
modified at system build time using the DEFAULT_SLURM_CONF parameter or at execution time by setting the SLURM_CONF environment variable.
The file will always be located in the same directory as the slurm.conf file.
Parameter names are case insensitive. Any text following a "#" in the configuration file is treated as a comment through the end of that
line. The size of each line in the file is limited to 1024 characters. Changes to the configuration file take effect upon restart of
SLURM daemons, daemon receipt of the SIGHUP signal, or execution of the command "scontrol reconfigure" unless otherwise noted.
The overall configuration parameters available include:
AuthKey
Authentication key for communications. This should be no more than a 32-bit unsigned integer and match the KEY configured in the
moab-private.cnf file (for the Moab Scheduler) or the --with-key= value used to configure the Maui Scheduler.
EHost Name the computer on which Moab server executes. It is used in establishing a communications path for event notification. By
default EHost will be identical in value to the ControlAddr configured in slurm.conf. Not applicable to wiki plugin, only the wiki2
plugin.
EHostBackup
Name the computer on which the backup Moab server executes. It is used in establishing a communications path for event notifica-
tion. By default EHostBackup will be identical in value to the BackupAddr configured in slurm.conf. Not applicable to wiki plugin,
only the wiki2 plugin.
EPort Port to be used to notify Moab of events (job submitted to SLURM, job terminates, etc.). This numeric value should match EPORT con-
figured in the moab.cnf file. Not applicable to wiki plugin, only the wiki2 plugin.
ExcludePartitions
Identifies partitions whose jobs are to be scheduled directly by SLURM rather than Moab/Maui. This only effects jobs which are sub-
mitted using SLURM commands (i.e. srun, salloc or sbatch, NOT msub from Moab). These jobs will be scheduled on a
First-Come-First-Served basis directly by SLURM. Note that SLURM recognizes jobs submitted via msub based upon the value FirstJobId
configured in slurm.conf. Set the values MINJOBID and MAXJOBID in moab.cfg accordingly. For example MINJOBID=1, MAXJOBID=65535 and
FirstJobId=65536. Jobs submitted using msub will have job ID values in the range of 1 and 65535 while jobs submitted directly using
SLURM commands will have a job ID of 65536 or higher. Moab/Maui controls for resource reservation, fair share scheduling, etc. will
not apply to the initiation of these jobs. While Moab/Maui will not control the initiation of jobs in these partitions, it will
account for and report the jobs. If more than one partition is to be scheduled directly by SLURM, use a comma separator between
their names. This may provide faster response times than Moab/Maui scheduling.
HidePartitionJobs
Identifies partitions whose jobs are not to be reported to Moab/Maui. These jobs will not be accounted for or otherwise visible to
Moab/Maui. Any partitions listed here must also be listed in ExcludePartitions. This only effects jobs which are submitted using
SLURM commands (i.e. srun, salloc or sbatch, NOT msub from Moab). If more than one partition is to have its jobs hidden, use a
comma separator between their names.
HidePartitionNodes
Identifies partitions whose nodes are not to be reported to Moab/Maui. Nodes which are configured only in hidden partitions will
not be accounted for or otherwise visible to Moab/Maui. Any partitions included here will normally also be included in the Exclude-
Partitions and HidePartitionJobs parameters. If more than one partition is to have its jobs hidden, use a comma separator between
their names.
HostFormat
Controls the format of host lists exchanged between SLURM and Moab. The default value is "0". Not applicable to wiki plugin, only
the wiki2 plugin.
0 No data compression. Each host name is listed individually.
1 SLURM hostlist expressions are exchanged with task counts (e.g. "tux[0-16]*2") in job state information and job initiation
requests.
2 SLURM hostlist expressions are used to report node state information.
JobAggregationTime
This is used to avoid notifying Moab of large numbers of events occuring about the same time. If an event occurs within this number
of seconds since Moab was last notified of an event, another notification is not sent. This should be an integer number of seconds.
The default value is 10 seconds. The value should match JOBAGGREGATIONTIME configured in the moab.cnf file. Not applicable to wiki
plugin, only the wiki2 plugin.
JobPriority
Controls initial job priority. The default value is "hold". Not applicable to wiki plugin, only the wiki2 plugin.
run Job permitted to run directly under SLURM's control
hold Hold all incoming jobs until Moab or Maui tell them to run
