compose_slurm_cluster

This repo holds the docker compose file to create a slurm cluster in a docker container.

It also contains a readme that gives you instructions on how to use it and some qof scripts.

System requirements:

• docker, docker compose 1.29.2 at least, Cgroup

• 10GB of storage

• At least 4GB of ram

Setup:

• First thing you will want to do is edit the docker service file (mine is located at "/etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants/docker.service", idk about you tho...) and change the "ExecStart" var value to

ExecStart=/usr/bin/dockerd -H fd:// --containerd=/run/containerd/containerd.sock --exec-opt native.cgroupdriver=systemd

It will tell docker to use Cgroup which is needed by the differents slurm containers. You may want to then, restart the docker service.

• Then, download/clone this repo, it will hold all of your cluster's dockerfiles, shared folders, etc...

git clone https://github.com/sOmEoNe2lOvEgIt/compose_slurm_cluster.git

• Finally, you will want to download/clone all of theses repos iside the previously cloned folder:

cd ./compose_slurm_cluster

git clone https://github.com/sOmEoNe2lOvEgIt/mariadb_docker.git

git clone https://github.com/sOmEoNe2lOvEgIt/slurm_node_docker.git

git clone https://github.com/sOmEoNe2lOvEgIt/slurm_controller_docker.git

git clone https://github.com/sOmEoNe2lOvEgIt/slurm_db_docker.git

git clone https://github.com/sOmEoNe2lOvEgIt/slurm_conf.git

This last repo holds the conf of all of the slurm daemons.

• Make sure that the docker service is running on your machine.

systemctl status docker

• DO NOT FORGET TO LAUNCH THE BUILD IMAGE SCRIPT!! IT WILL BUILD ALL IMAGES FROM THE DOCKERFILE NEEDED BY THE DOCKER COMPOSE!

./build_all_images.sh

Good job!

If you are reading this, it means that you have either completed the previous steps or you have skipped the whole thing (in which case i wish you good luck...).

Now, theoricaly, you can start up this whole thing by going to the root of the repo then do

docker compose up

It should cleany start everything. If it does not, try checking the previous steps. If it still does not work (and is then my fault), you can submit an issue that i will try to adress/fix.
