Created attachment 514 [details] AuthInfo: Adds the ability to specify an alternate MUNGE socket. It turns out, the sys admins really need on BG/Q the MungeSocket functionality that Phil added to our v2.3.3 here: https://github.com/chaos/slurm/commit/7d31af59f89b689408d12d607c6e5c4e31a8f2d8 The attached patch is a port of the above to the latest 13.12 development branch. It follows Danny's request to use AuthInfo instead of MungeSocket for consistency sake. I tested the patch and it works on a simulated machine. I have not had the chance to port this to v2.6 and run it on a real machine. The attached patch includes all of Phil's original patch (substituting AuthInfo) plus some additional changes I though would be required. I used the existing code supporting authtype to locate possible additions for authinfo. There were some files I opted not to change. For example, I did not create an auth_info analog to slurm_get_auth_type() and slurm_set_auth_type(). I also judged that the auth_type code in src/slurmctld/read_config.c did not have to be expanded to include auth_info. If you feel these sections need to include auth_info, let me know and I'll make the patch match up with auth_type exactly. Again, it seemed to work on my test system. And Phil's original MungeSocket patch has been working fine on our v2.3.3 systems.
Slight variation of Phil's patch committed here: https://github.com/SchedMD/slurm/commit/581bd1d8cba665daade738c1fc10746f3285c785
