Hi!

I'm encountering the following errors on my node: 

Aug 29 12:24:48 n01 slurmd[9484]: error: _fetch_child: failed to fetch remote configs

Aug 29 12:24:48 n01 slurmd[9483]: error: _establish_configuration: failed to load configs

Aug 29 12:24:48 n01 slurmd[9483]: error: slurmd initialization failed


I disabled Slurm's Configless, copied the configuration files to the nodes, and restarted the services, but this error keeps being returned.


Could you please help me with this?


Thanks!

Nícolas

Hi:

 

In my experience this usually means the compute node can’t talk to the slurmctld TCP port on the slurm controller (firewall?), or the controller host isn’t resolving the compute node’s name (short hostname vs FQDN, for example).  I’d look at slurmctld and slurmd logs—you should see a useful complaint in one of those, whatever the cause.

Hello Paul! 

Thank you for the response!

It's strange because in the slurmctld log, the error I'm getting is: 
error: _slurm_rpc_config_request: Rejected request as configless is disabled  

Thanks!
