NAME
slurmrestd - Interface to Slurm via REST API.

SYNOPSIS
slurmrestd [OPTIONS...] [(host:port)|(unix:/path/to/socket)]...

DESCRIPTION
slurmrestd is REST API interface for Slurm. It can be used in two modes:

Inetd Mode: slurmrestd will read and write to STDIN and STDOUT. It can detect if
    it is connected to a socket or a locally TTY (interactive mode).

Listen Mode: slurmrestd will open a listening socket on each requested
    host:port pair or UNIX socket.

OPTIONS

[host:port]
    Hostname and port to listen against. Host may be (IPv4/IPv6) IP or a resolvable hostname. Hostnames are only looked up at startup and do not change for the life of the process.

unix:/path/to/socket
    Listen on local UNIX socket. Must have permission to create socket in filesystem.

-f <file>
    Read Slurm configuration from the specified file. See NOTES below.

-g <group id>
    Change group id (and drop supplemental groups) before processing client request. This should be a unique group with no write access or special permissions. Do not set this user to SlurmUser or root.

-h  Help; print a brief summary of command options.

-t <THREAD COUNT>
    Specify number of threads to use to process client connections. Ignored in inetd mode. Default: 20

-u <user id>
    Change user id before processing client request. This should be a unique group with no write access or special permissions. Do not set this user to SlurmUser or root.

-v  Verbose operation. Multiple -v's increase verbosity. Higher verbosity levels will have significant performance impact.

-V  Print version information and exit.

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
The following environment variables can be used to override settings compiled into slurmctld.

SLURM_CONF
    The location of the Slurm configuration file.

SLURMRESTD_DEBUG
    Set debug level explicitly. Valid values are 1-10. See -v

SLURMRESTD_LISTEN
    Comma delimited list of host:port pairs or unix sockets to listen on.

SIGNALS

SIGINT
    slurmrestd will shutdown cleanly.

SIGPIPE
    This signal is explicitly ignored.

NOTES
slurmrestd is designed to run with AuthAltTypes outside of the Munge cluster when configured AuthAltTypes supports this.
