+# Vagrant Slurm
+
+**Warning: For demonstration/testing purposes only, not suitable for use in production**
+
+This repository contains a `Vagrantfile` and the necessary configuration for
+automating the setup of a Slurm cluster using Vagrant's shell provisioning on
+Debian 12 x86_64 VMs.
+
+### Prerequisites
+
+This setup was developed using vagrant-libvirt with NFS for file sharing,
+rather than the more common VirtualBox configuration which typically uses
+VirtualBox's Shared Folders. However, VirtualBox should work fine.
+
+The core requirements for this setup are:
+- Vagrant (with functioning file sharing)
+- (Optional) Make (for convenience commands)
+
+### Cluster Structure
+- `node1`: Head Node (runs `slurmctld`)
+- `node2`: Login/Submit Node
+- `node3` / `node4`: Compute Nodes (runs `slurmd`)
+
+By default, each node is allocated:
+- 2 threads/cores (depending on architecture)
+- 2 GB of RAM
+
+**Warning: 8 vCPUs and 8 GB of RAM is used in total resources**
+
+## Quick Start
+
+1. To build the cluster, you can use either of these methods
+
+    Using the Makefile (recommended):
+
+       make
+
+    Using Vagrant directly:
+
+       vagrant up
+
+2. Login to the Login Node (node2) as the submit user:
+
+       vagrant ssh node2 -c "sudo -iu submit"
+
+
+3. Run the example prime number search script:
+
+	   /vagrant/primes.sh
+
+	By default, this script searches for prime numbers from `1-10,000` and `10,001-20,000`
+
+    You can adjust the range searched per node by providing an integer argument, e.g.:
+
+	   /vagrant/primes.sh 20000
+
+	The script will then drop you into a `watch -n0.1 squeue` view so you can see
+  each job computing on `nodes[3-4]`. You may `CTRL+c` out of this view, and
+  the jobs will continue in the background. The home directory for the `submit`
+  user is in the shared `/vagrant` directory, so the results from each node are
+  shared back to the login node.
+
+4. View the resulting prime numbers found, check `ls` for exact filenames
+
+       less slurm-1.out
+       less slurm-2.out
+
+### Configuration Tool
+
+On the Head Node (`node1`), you can access the configuration tools specific to
+the version distributed with Debian. Since this may not be the latest Slurm
+release, it's important to use the configuration tool that matches the
+installed version. To access these tools, you can use Python to run a simple
+web server:
+
+	python3 -m http.server 8080 --directory /usr/share/doc/slurm-wlm/html/
+
+You can then access the HTML documentation via the VM's IP address at port 8080
+in your web browser on the host machine.
+
+### Cleanup
+To clean up files placed on the host through Vagrant file sharing:
+
+	make clean
+
+This command is useful when you want to remove all generated files and return
+to a clean state. The Makefile is quite simple, so you can refer to it directly
+to see exactly what's being cleaned up.

+#!/bin/bash
+
+# This script finds prime numbers using the Slurm workload manager.
+# It operates in two modes:
+#
+# 1. When run without a Slurm job ID:
+#    - It accepts an optional argument to set the range (default: 10000).
+#    - It submits two Slurm jobs:
+#      a) First job searches for primes from 1 to RANGE.
+#      b) Second job searches for primes from (RANGE + 1) to (RANGE * 2).
+#    - After submission, it watches the Slurm queue, updating every 0.1 seconds.
+#
+# 2. When run as a Slurm job:
+#    - It uses the 'factor' command to identify prime numbers within the given range.
+#    - It prints each prime number found to stdout.
+#    - It logs the job ID and the range being searched.
+#
+# Usage:
+#   Without arguments: ./primes.sh
+#   With custom range: ./primes.sh 20000
+
+RANGE=${1:-10000}
