Description paull 2016-06-14 02:01:02 MDT 
We currently have glibc 2.12 installed but slurmdbd is requiring 2.14 for 14.11.12. Is there a way to compile it to use glibc 2.12?

sbin/slurmdbd: /lib64/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.14' not found (required by sbin/slurmdbd)

glibc.i686             2.12-1.149.el6_6.9
glibc.x86_64           2.12-1.149.el6_6.9
glibc-common.x86_64    2.12-1.149.el6_6.9
glibc-devel.x86_64     2.12-1.149.el6_6.9
glibc-headers.x86_64   2.12-1.149.el6_6.9

Thanks,

Paul

You want to match the box you compile Slurm with to the target platform. It looks like wherever you built the RPMs has a newer glibc version than your servers, which is leading to this mismatch; Slurm picks up whatever is available for library versions at build time.

Well that makes a ton of sense. I was compiling on a Centos 7 system running glibc 2.17. I will compile on a different system with the required packages. Thanks Tim! We can close this now.
