Bug Description
Binary package hint: slurm-llnl
The .deb for slurm contains a /var/run/slurm-llnl directory, which is used to store the pids in for the slurmd and slurmctld daemons. However, this directory is lost on reboot (/var/run is a tmpfs), so after the first reboot, slurm fails to start.
My suggestion is simply to change the default configuration of slurm to create the pids directly in /var/run. There's no need for a slurm-llnl subdirectory to store the pids, since slurmd and slurmctld both are running as root when they create their pid file.
