SLURM Plugin & Balancer

[jlafon]

Hi,

I've recently implemented a SLURM (https://computing.llnl.gov/linux/slurm) plugin, as well as a SLURM load balancer.

Please let me know if you find any issues with these commits.

Thanks,

-Jharrod

SLURM Plugin

• SLURM is an open source resource manager/scheduler for Linux based clusters.
• The SLURM packages are installed (tools include srun, sbatch, squeue, sacct, sreport, sview, etc)
• The SLURM plugin fully configures SLURM using a provided configuration template, or a user provided one.
• The plugin additionally configures MySQL and slurmdbd, the SLURM database daemon.

SLURM Load Balancer

• Provides similar ability to that of the SGE balancer
• Written to provide the same behavior as defined here: http://web.mit.edu/star/cluster/docs/latest/manual/load_balancer.html
• Visualizer not implemented yet

Wow, thanks for all of this! There's a lot to review but I'll try to pull it all in and test so that we can iterate on things that need fixing/updating/documenting. One quick note: in the future please base your feature branches off of the 'develop' branch. The 'master' branch for StarCluster is a release-merge-only branch. I try to follow the gitflow model closely:

Thanks again and I'll be in touch soon.

Great. I'll keep everything on the develop branch next time. Please let
me know if anything needs to be fixed/documented/etc.

Thanks for making an excellent open source tool.

Regards,
