Description
Slurm fails to execute the slurmctld prolog out of /opt/azurehpc which is created as root:root mode 0750 in a hardened UMASK 027 environment. A check for mode 0755 for /opt/azurehpc directory is needed for slurm before slurm can be installed correctly.

Research direction
Start by tracing where the deployment creates /opt/azurehpc and how the slurmctld prolog is executed, then reproduce the failure on a CIS-hardened Ubuntu image. The fix is done when /opt/azurehpc has mode 0755 and Slurm installs and runs its prolog successfully in the hardened UMASK 027 environment.
