.SH "DESCRIPTION" \fBslurmdbd\fR provides a secure enterprise\-wide interface to a database for Slurm. This is particularly useful for archiving accounting records. .SH "OPTIONS" .TP \fB\-D\fR Run \fBslurmdbd\fR in the foreground with logging copied to stdout. .IP .TP \fB\-h\fR Help; print a brief summary of command options. .IP .TP \fB\-n <value>\fR Set the daemon's nice value to the specified value, typically a negative number. .IP .TP \fB\-s\fR Change working directory of slurmdbd to LogFile path if possible, or to /var/tmp otherwise. .IP .TP \fB\-u\fR Only display the Slurm Database version and if conversion is needed and exit without taking control. If no conversion is needed 0 is returned, if conversion is needed 1 is returned. .IP .TP \fB\-v\fR Verbose operation. Multiple \fBv\fR's can be specified, with each '\fBv\fR' beyond the first increasing verbosity, up to 6 times (i.e. \-vvvvvv). .IP .TP \fB\-V\fR Print version information and exit. .IP .SH "ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES" The following environment variables can be used to override settings compiled into slurmdbd. .TP \fBABORT_ON_FATAL\fR .SH "SIGNALS" .TP \fBSIGTERM SIGINT SIGQUIT\fR \fBslurmdbd\fR will shutdown cleanly, waiting for in\-progress rollups to finish. .IP .TP \fBSIGABRT\fR \fBslurmdbd\fR will perform a core dump, then exit. In\-progress operations are killed. .IP .TP \fBSIGHUP\fR Reloads the slurm configuration files, similar to 'scontrol reconfigure'. .IP .TP \fBSIGTSTP\fR Stop the process from a terminal. .IP .TP \fBSIGUSR2\fR Reread the log level from the configs, and then reopen the log file. This should be used when setting up \fBlogrotate\fR(8). .IP .TP \fBSIGCHLD SIGUSR1 SIGXCPU SIGPIPE SIGALRM\fR These signals are explicitly ignored. .IP .SH "NOTES" It may be useful to experiment with different \fBslurmctld\fR specific configuration parameters using a distinct configuration file (e.g. timeouts). However, this special configuration file will not be used by the \fBslurmd\fR 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, \fBslurm.conf\fR. .SH "COPYING" Copyright (C) 2008 Lawrence Livermore National Security.
