NAME
       slurmctld - The central management daemon of Slurm.


SYNOPSIS
       slurmctld [OPTIONS...]


DESCRIPTION
       slurmctld  is  the  central management daemon of Slurm. It monitors all
       other Slurm daemons and resources, accepts work (jobs),  and  allocates
       resources to those jobs. Given the critical functionality of slurmctld,
       there may be a backup server to assume these  functions  in  the  event
       that the primary server fails.

       OPTIONS

       -B     Do  not  recover  state  of  BlueGene  blocks  when running on a
              bluegene system.

       -c     Clear all previous slurmctld state  from  its  last  checkpoint.
              Without  this  option, previously running jobs will be preserved
              along with node State of DOWN, DRAINED and  DRAINING  nodes  and
              the associated Reason field for those nodes.

       -D     Debug  mode. Execute slurmctld in the foreground with logging to
              stdout.

       -f <file>
              Read configuration from the specified file. See NOTES below.

       -h     Help; print a brief summary of command options.

       -L <file>
              Write log messages to the specified file.

       -n <value>
              Set the daemon's nice value to the specified value, typically  a
              negative number.

       -r     Recover  partial  state  from  last  checkpoint:  jobs  and node
              DOWN/DRAIN state and reason  information  state.   No  partition
              state is recovered.  This is the default action.

       -R     Recover  full  state  from  last  checkpoint:  jobs,  node,  and
              partition state.  Without this option, previously  running  jobs
              will  be  preserved  along  with node State of DOWN, DRAINED and
              DRAINING nodes and the associated Reason field for those  nodes.
              No other node or partition state will be preserved.

       -v     Verbose operation. Multiple -v's increase verbosity.

       -V     Print version information and exit.


ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
       The  following  environment  variables can be used to override settings
       compiled into slurmctld.

       SLURM_CONF          The location of the SLURM configuration file.  This
                           is  overridden by explicitly naming a configuration
                           file on the command line.


CORE FILE LOCATION
       If slurmctld is started with the -D option then the core file  will  be
       written    to    the   current   working   directory.    Otherwise   if
       SlurmctldLogFile is a  fully  qualified  path  name  (starting  with  a
       slash),  the core file will be written to the same directory as the log
       file.    Otherwise   the   core   file   will   be   written   to   the
       StateSaveLocation.   The  command "scontrol abort" can be used to abort
       the slurmctld daemon and generate a core file.


NOTES
       It may be  useful  to  experiment  with  different  slurmctld  specific
       configuration  parameters  using  a  distinct  configuration file (e.g.
       timeouts).  However, this special configuration file will not  be  used
       by  the  slurmd  daemon  or the Slurm programs, unless you specifically
       tell each of them to use  it.  If  you  desire  changing  communication
       ports,  the  location of the temporary file system, or other parameters
       used by other Slurm components, change the common  configuration  file,
       slurm.conf.
