NAME

       slurmdbd - Slurm Database Daemon.

SYNOPSIS

       slurmdbd [OPTIONS...]

DESCRIPTION

       slurmdbd provides a secure enterprise-wide interface to a database for Slurm. This is particularly useful
       for archiving accounting records.

       OPTIONS

       -D     Run slurmdbd in the foreground with logging copied to stdout.

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

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

       -R[comma separated cluster name list]
              Reset  the  lft  and rgt values of the associations in the given cluster list.  Lft and rgt values
              are used to distinguish hierarchical groups in the slurm accounting database.  This option  should
              be very rarely used.

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

       -V     Print version information and exit.

CORE FILE LOCATION

       If  slurmdbd  is  started  with  the  -D option then the core file will be written to the current working
       directory.  Otherwise if LogFile in "slurmdbd.conf" is a fully  qualified  path  name  (starting  with  a
       slash), the core file will be written to the same directory as the log file, provided SlurmUser has write
       permission  on  the  directory.  Otherwise the core file will be written to "/var/tmp/" as a last resort.
       If neither of the above directories have write permission for SlurmUser, no core file will be produced.

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.
