"dummy" slurm for PC

[Sakhile Masoka]

Hi

I want to install SLURM on my Macbook pro and Windows machine for testing
purposes. The Center is considering moving to SLURM and I want to try it
out before I install it on my test cluster. Is there a "dummy" version I
can download and test policies?

When I first evaluated using SLURM, I spun up a half dozen or so VM’s on my laptop and built MUNGE and SLURM *.rpm’s from the latest distribution tarballs. It only took an afternoon or so to get going.

If a RedHat based OS is used, munge can be installed from EPEL.

I use a script [1] to build RPMs for SLURM in mock. It's somewhat site-specific but may provide a good starting place for someone who can read bash and wants ideas on how to build SLURM RPMs.

This may be less helpful , but if someone in your organization is familiar with Ruby and/or Puppet, you can try using the "beaker" rake task from my Puppet module [2].

Is there a license restriction any other reason that would make it "not okay" for me to post a link to pre-built SLURM RPMs?

As far as I know the only pre-built versions of SLURM are for Debian and Ubuntu.

You could run SLURM inside of VMs using Vagrant and Virtualbox. I use that method in both OS X and Linux to test out various configurations and to build RPMs for SLURM.

Check out

http://slurm.schedmd.com/faq.html#multi_slurmd

which doesn't require a cluster or extra nodes to emulate a cluster with
most of the bells and whistles.

Keep in mind Slurm will not run on Windows, but it should work on your Mac.
