How do I set up Slurm accounting for priority scheduling?

SUNK enables Slurm accounting by default: accounting.enabled is true and SUNK deploys a local slurmdbd with MySQL automatically. Accounting collects the job data that Slurm uses for fair-share priority calculations, so most clusters do not need any additional configuration to support priority-based scheduling. Verify accounting is collecting data by running sacct from a login pod. To use a remote slurmdbd instead of the local instance, set the external accounting parameters in values.yaml:

accounting:
  external:
    enabled: true
    host: "[SLURMDBD-HOST]"
    port: "[SLURMDBD-PORT]"
    user: "[SLURMDBD-USER]"

For all accounting parameters (replicas, resource requests, priority class, security context, external database), see the accounting.* and accounting.external.* entries in Slurm parameters.
