sacct(1) Slurm Commands sacct(1) NAME sacct - displays accounting data for all jobs and job steps in the Slurm job accounting log or Slurm database SYNOPSIS sacct [OPTIONS...] DESCRIPTION Accounting information for jobs invoked with Slurm are either logged in the job accounting log file or saved to the Slurm database, as config- ured with the AccountingStorageType parameter. The sacct command displays job accounting data stored in the job ac- counting log file or Slurm database in a variety of forms for your analysis. The sacct command displays information on jobs, job steps, status, and exitcodes by default. You can tailor the output with the use of the --format= option to specify the fields to be shown. Job records consist of a primary entry for the job as a whole as well as entries for job steps. The Job Launch page has a more detailed de- scription of each type of job step. <https://slurm.schedmd.com/job_launch.html#job_record> For the root user, the sacct command displays job accounting data for all users, although there are options to filter the output to report only the jobs from a specified user or group. For the non-root user, the sacct command limits the display of job ac- counting data to jobs that were launched with their own user identifier (UID) by default. Data for other users can be displayed with the --al- lusers, --user, or --uid options. Elapsed time fields are presented as [days-]hours:minutes:seconds[.mi- croseconds]. Only 'CPU' fields will ever have microseconds. The default input file is the file named in the AccountingStorageLoc parameter in slurm.conf. NOTE: If designated, the slurmdbd.conf option PrivateData may further restrict the accounting data visible to users which are not SlurmUser, root, or a user with AdminLevel=Admin. See the slurmdbd.conf man page for additional details on restricting access to accounting data. NOTE: The contents of Slurm's database are maintained in lower case. This may result in some sacct output differing from that of other Slurm commands. NOTE: Much of the data reported by sacct has been generated by the wait3() and getrusage() system calls. Some systems gather and report incomplete information for these calls; sacct reports values of 0 for this missing data. See your systems getrusage (3) man page for informa- tion about which data are actually available on your system. OPTIONS -A, --accounts=<account_list> Displays jobs when a comma separated list of accounts are given as the argument. --array Expand job arrays. Display all array tasks on separate lines instead of displaying groups of array tasks on single lines. -L, --allclusters Display jobs ran on all clusters. By default, only jobs ran on the cluster from where sacct is called are displayed. -X, --allocations Only show statistics relevant to the job allocation itself, not taking steps into consideration. NOTE: Without including steps, utilization statistics for job allocation(s) will be reported as zero. -a, --allusers Displays all users' jobs when run by user root or if Private- Data is not configured to jobs. Otherwise display the cur- rent user's jobs -x, --associations=<assoc_list> Displays the statistics only for the jobs running under the association ids specified by the assoc_list operand, which is a comma-separated list of association ids. Space characters are not allowed in the assoc_list. Default is all associa- tions. -B, --batch-script This option will print the batch script of job if the job used one. If the job didn't have a script 'NONE' is output. NOTE: AccountingStoreFlags=job_script is required for this. NOTE: Requesting specific job(s) with '-j' is required for this. -b, --brief Displays a brief listing consisting of JobID, State, and Ex- itCode. -M, --clusters=<cluster_list> Displays the statistics only for the jobs started on the clusters specified by the cluster_list operand, which is a comma-separated list of clusters. Space characters are not allowed in the cluster_list. A value of 'all' will query to run on all clusters. The default is current cluster you are executing the sacct command on or all clusters in the federa- tion when executed on a federated cluster. This option im- plicitly sets the --local option. -c, --completion Use job completion data instead of job accounting. The Job- CompType parameter in the slurm.conf file must be defined to a non-none option. Does not support federated cluster infor- mation (local data only). -C, --constraints=<constraint_list> Comma separated list to filter jobs based on what con- straints/features the job requested. Multiple options will be treated as 'and' not 'or', so the job would need all con- straints specified to be returned not one or the other. --delimiter=<characters> ASCII characters used to separate the fields when specifying the -p or -P options. The default delimiter is a '|'. This option is ignored if -p or -P options are not specified. -D, --duplicates If Slurm job ids are reset, some job numbers will probably appear more than once in the accounting log file but refer to different jobs. Such jobs can be distinguished by the "sub- mit" time stamp in the data records. When data for specific jobs are requested with the --jobs op- tion, sacct returns the most recent job with that number. This behavior can be overridden by specifying --duplicates, in which case all records that match the selection criteria will be returned. NOTE: Revoked federated sibling jobs are hidden unless the --duplicates option is specified. -E, --endtime=<end_time> Select jobs in any state before the specified time. If states are given with the -s option return jobs in this state before this period. See the DEFAULT TIME WINDOW for more details. Valid time formats are: HH:MM[:SS][AM|PM] MMDD[YY][-HH:MM[:SS]] MM.DD[.YY][-HH:MM[:SS]] MM/DD[/YY][-HH:MM[:SS]] YYYY-MM-DD[THH:MM[:SS]] today, midnight, noon, fika (3 PM), teatime (4 PM) now[{+|-}count[seconds(default)|minutes|hours|days|weeks]] --env-vars This option will print the running environment of a batch job, otherwise 'NONE' is output. NOTE: AccountingStoreFlags=job_env is required for this. NOTE: Requesting specific job(s) with '-j' is required for this. --federation Show jobs from the federation if a member of one. -f, --file=<file> Causes the sacct command to read job accounting data from the named file instead of the current Slurm job accounting log file. Only applicable when running the jobcomp/filetxt plu- gin. Setting this flag implicitly enables the -c flag. -F, --flags=<flag_list> Comma separated list to filter jobs based on what various ways the jobs were handled. Current flags are SchedSubmit, SchedMain, SchedBackfill and StartReceived. SchedSubmit, SchedMain, SchedBackfill describe the scheduler that started the job. -o, --format Comma separated list of fields. (use "--helpformat" for a list of available fields). NOTE: When using the format option for listing various fields you can put a %NUMBER afterwards to specify how many charac- ters should be printed. e.g. format=name%30 will print 30 characters of field name right justified. A %-30 will print 30 characters left justi- fied. When set, the SACCT_FORMAT environment variable will override the default format. For example: SACCT_FORMAT="jobid,user,account,cluster" -g, --gid=, --group=<gid_or_group_list> Displays the statistics only for the jobs started with the GID or the GROUP specified by the gid_list or the group_list operand, which is a comma-separated list. Space characters are not allowed. Default is no restrictions. -h, --help Displays a general help message. -e, --helpformat Print a list of fields that can be specified with the --for- mat option. Fields available: Account AdminComment AllocCPUS AllocNodes AllocTRES AssocID AveCPU AveCPUFreq AveDiskRead AveDiskWrite AvePages AveRSS AveVMSize BlockID Cluster Comment Constraints ConsumedEnergy ConsumedEnergyRaw Container CPUTime CPUTimeRAW DBIndex DerivedExitCode Elapsed ElapsedRaw Eligible End ExitCode FailedNode Flags GID Group JobID JobIDRaw JobName Layout MaxDiskRead MaxDiskReadNode MaxDiskReadTask MaxDiskWrite MaxDiskWriteNode MaxDiskWriteTask MaxPages MaxPagesNode MaxPagesTask MaxRSS MaxRSSNode MaxRSSTask MaxVMSize MaxVMSizeNode MaxVMSizeTask McsLabel MinCPU MinCPUNode MinCPUTask NCPUS NNodes NodeList NTasks Partition Planned PlannedCPU PlannedCPURAW Priority QOS QOSRAW Reason ReqCPUFreq ReqCPUFreqGov ReqCPUFreqMax ReqCPUFreqMin ReqCPUS ReqMem ReqNodes ReqTRES Reservation ReservationId Start State Submit SubmitLine Suspended SystemComment SystemCPU Timelimit TimelimitRaw TotalCPU TRESUsageInAve TRESUsageInMax TRESUsageInMaxNode TRESUsageInMaxTask TRESUsageInMin TRESUsageInMinNode TRESUsageInMinTask TRESUsageInTot TRESUsageOutAve TRESUsageOutMax TRESUsageOutMaxNode TRESUsageOutMaxTask TRESUsageOutMin TRESUsageOutMinNode TRESUsageOutMinTask TRESUsageOutTot UID User UserCPU WCKey WCKeyID WorkDir NOTE: When using with Ave[RSS|VM]Size or their values in TRE- SUsageIn[Ave|Tot]. They represent the average/total of the highest wa- termarks over all ranks in the step. When using sstat they represent the average/total at the moment the command was run. NOTE: TRESUsage*Min* values represent the lowest highwater mark in the step. NOTE: Availability of metrics rely on the jobacct_gather plugin used. For example the jobacct_gather/cgroup in combination with cgroup/v2 does not provide Virtual Memory metrics due to limitations in the ker- nel cgroups interfaces and will show a 0 for the related fields. The section titled "Job Accounting Fields" describes these fields. -j, --jobs=<job[.step]> Displays information about the specified job[.step] or list of job[.step]s. The job[.step] parameter is a comma-separated list of jobs. Space characters are not permitted in this list. NOTE: A step id of 'batch' will display the information about the batch step. By default sacct shows only jobs with Eligible time, but with this option the non-eligible will be also shown. NOTE: If --state is also specified, as non-eligible are not PD, then non-eligible jobs will not be displayed. See the DEFAULT TIME WINDOW for details about how this option changes the default -S and -E options. --json, --json=list, --json=<data_parser> Dump job information as JSON using the default data_parser plugin or explicit data_parser with parameters. Sorting and formatting arguments will be ignored. --local Show only jobs local to this cluster. Ignore other clusters in this federation (if any). Overrides --federation. -l, --long Equivalent to specifying: --format=jobid,jobidraw,jobname,partition,maxvmsize,maxvm- sizenode, maxvmsizetask,avevm- size,maxrss,maxrssnode,maxrsstask,averss,maxpages, max- pagesnode,maxpagestask,avepages,mincpu,mincpun- ode,mincputask,avecpu,ntasks, alloccpus,elapsed,state,exit- code,avecpufreq,reqcpufreqmin,reqcpufreqmax, reqcpufreq- gov,reqmem,consumeden- ergy,maxdiskread,maxdiskreadnode,maxdiskreadtask, avediskread,maxdiskwrite,maxdiskwritenode,maxdiskwrite- task,avediskwrite, reqtres,alloctres,tresusageinave,tre- susageinmax, tresusageinmaxn,tresusageinmaxt,tresusagein- min,tresusageinminn,tresusageinmint, tresusageintot,tre- susageoutmax,tresusageoutmaxn, tresusageoutmaxt,tresusage- outave,tresusageouttot --name=<jobname_list> Display jobs that have any of these name(s). -i, --nnodes=<min[-max]> Return jobs that ran on the specified number of nodes. -I, --ncpus=<min[-max]> Return jobs that ran on the specified number of cpus. --noconvert Don't convert units from their original type (e.g. 2048M won't be converted to 2G). -N, --nodelist=<node_list> Display jobs that ran on any of these node(s). node_list can be a ranged string. NOTE: This is not reliable when nodes are added or removed to Slurm while jobs are running. Only jobs that started in the specified time range (-S, -E) will be returned. -n, --noheader No heading will be added to the output. The default action is to display a header. -p, --parsable Output will be '|' delimited with a '|' at the end. See also the --delimiter option. -P, --parsable2 Output will be '|' delimited without a '|' at the end. See also the --delimiter option. -r, --partition Comma separated list of partitions to select jobs and job steps from. The default is all partitions. -q, --qos Only send data about jobs using these qos. Default is all. -R, --reason=<reason_list> Comma separated list to filter jobs based on what reason the job wasn't scheduled outside resources/priority. -S, --starttime Select jobs in any state after the specified time. Default is 00:00:00 of the current day, unless the '-s' or '-j' options are used. If the '-s' option is used, then the default is 'now'. If states are given with the '-s' option then only jobs in this state at this time will be returned. If the '-j' option is used, then the default time is Unix Epoch 0. See the DEFAULT TIME WINDOW for more details. Valid time formats are: HH:MM[:SS][AM|PM] MMDD[YY][-HH:MM[:SS]] MM.DD[.YY][-HH:MM[:SS]] MM/DD[/YY][-HH:MM[:SS]] YYYY-MM-DD[THH:MM[:SS]] today, midnight, noon, fika (3 PM), teatime (4 PM) now[{+|-}count[seconds(default)|minutes|hours|days|weeks]] -s, --state=<state_list> Selects jobs based on their state during the time period given. Unless otherwise specified, the start and end time will be the current time when the --state option is specified and only currently running jobs can be displayed. A start and/or end time must be specified to view information about jobs not currently running. See the JOB STATE CODES section below for a list of state designators. Multiple state names may be specified using comma separators. Either the short or long form of the state name may be used (e.g. CA or CAN- CELLED) and the name is case insensitive (i.e. ca and CA both work). NOTE: Note for a job to be selected in the PENDING state it must have "EligibleTime" in the requested time interval or different from "Unknown". The "EligibleTime" is displayed by the "scontrol show job" command. For example jobs submitted with the "--hold" option will have "EligibleTime=Unknown" as they are pending indefinitely. NOTE: When specifying states and no start time is given the default start time is 'now'. This is only when -j is not used. If -j is used the start time will default to 'Epoch'. In both cases if no end time is given it will default to 'now'. See the DEFAULT TIME WINDOW for more details. -K, --timelimit-max Ignored by itself, but if timelimit_min is set this will be the maximum timelimit of the range. Default is no restric- tion. -k, --timelimit-min Only send data about jobs with this timelimit. If used with timelimit_max this will be the minimum timelimit of the range. Default is no restriction. -T, --truncate Truncate time. So if a job started before --starttime the start time would be truncated to --starttime. The same for end time and --endtime. -u, --uid=, --user=<uid_or_user_list> Use this comma separated list of UIDs or user names to select jobs to display. By default, the running user's UID is used. --units=[KMGTP] Display values in specified unit type. Takes precedence over --noconvert option. --usage Display a command usage summary. --use-local-uid When displaying UID, sacct uses the UID stored in Slurm's ac- counting database by default. Use this command to make Slurm use a system call to get the UID from the username. This op- tion may be useful in an environment with multiple clusters and one database where the UIDs aren't the same on all clus- ters. -v, --verbose Primarily for debugging purposes, report the state of various variables during processing. -V, --version Print version. -W, --wckeys=<wckey_list> Displays the statistics only for the jobs started on the wck- eys specified by the wckey_list operand, which is a comma-separated list of wckey names. Space characters are not allowed in the wckey_list. Default is all wckeys. --whole-hetjob[=yes|no] When querying and filtering heterogeneous jobs with --jobs, Slurm will default to retrieving information about all the components of the job if the het_job_id (leader id) is se- lected. If a non-leader heterogeneous job component id is se- lected then only that component is retrieved by default. This behavior can be changed by using this option. If set to 'yes' (or no argument), then information about all the components will be retrieved no matter which component is selected in the job filter. If set to 'no' then only the selected hetero- geneous job component(s) will be retrieved, even when select- ing the leader. --yaml, --yaml=list, --yaml=<data_parser> Dump job information as YAML using the default data_parser plugin or explicit data_parser with parameters. Sorting and formatting arguments will be ignored. Job Accounting Fields Descriptions of each job accounting field can be found below. Note that the Ave*, Max* and Min* accounting fields look at the values for all the tasks of each step in a job and return the average, maximum or minimum values for the job step. ALL Print all fields listed below. Account Account the job ran under. AdminComment A comment string on a job that must be set by an ad- ministrator, the SlurmUser or root. AllocCPUs Count of allocated CPUs. Equivalent to NCPUS. AllocNodes Number of nodes allocated to the job/step. 0 if the job is pending. AllocTres Trackable resources. These are the resources allocated to the job/step after the job started running. For pending jobs this should be blank. For more details see AccountingStorageTRES in slurm.conf. NOTE: When a generic resource is configured with the no_consume flag, the allocation will be printed with a zero. AssocID Reference to the association of user, account and cluster. AveCPU Average (system + user) CPU time of all tasks in job. AveCPUFreq Average weighted CPU frequency of all tasks in job, in kHz. AveDiskRead Average number of bytes read by all tasks in job. AveDiskWrite Average number of bytes written by all tasks in job. AvePages Average number of page faults of all tasks in job. AveRSS Average resident set size of all tasks in job. AveVMSize Average Virtual Memory size of all tasks in job. BlockID The name of the block to be used (used with Blue Gene systems). Cluster Cluster name. Comment The job's comment string when the AccountingStoreFlags parameter in the slurm.conf file contains 'job_com- ment'. The Comment string can be modified by invoking sacctmgr modify job or the specialized sjobexitmod command. Constraints Feature(s) the job requested as a constraint. ConsumedEnergy Total energy consumed by all tasks in a job, in joules. Value may include a unit prefix (K,M,G,T,P). Note: Only in the case of an exclusive job allocation does this value reflect the job's real energy consump- tion. ConsumedEnergyRaw Total energy consumed by all tasks in a job, in joules. Note: Only in the case of an exclusive job allocation does this value reflect the job's real en- ergy consumption. Container Path to OCI Container Bundle requested. CPUTime Time used (Elapsed time * CPU count) by a job or step in HH:MM:SS format. CPUTimeRAW Time used (Elapsed time * CPU count) by a job or step in cpu-seconds. DBIndex Unique database index for entries in the job table. DerivedExitCode The highest exit code returned by the job's job steps (srun invocations). Following the colon is the signal that caused the process to terminate if it was termi- nated by a signal. The DerivedExitCode can be modified by invoking sacctmgr modify job or the specialized sjobexitmod command. Elapsed The job's elapsed time. The format of this field's output is as follows: [DD-[HH:]]MM:SS as defined by the following: DD days hh hours mm minutes ss seconds ElapsedRaw The job's elapsed time in seconds. Eligible When the job became eligible to run. In the same for- mat as End. End Termination time of the job. The output is of the for- mat YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SS, unless changed through the SLURM_TIME_FORMAT environment variable. ExitCode The exit code returned by the job script or salloc, typically as set by the exit() function. Following the colon is the signal that caused the process to termi- nate if it was terminated by a signal. Extra The job's extra string when the AccountingStoreFlags parameter in the slurm.conf file contains 'job_extra'. The Extra string can be modified by invoking sacctmgr modify job command. FailedNode The name of the node whose failure caused the job to be killed. Flags Job flags. Current flags are SchedSubmit, SchedMain, SchedBackfill. GID The group identifier of the user who ran the job. Group The group name of the user who ran the job. JobID The identification number of the job or job step. Regular jobs are in the form: JobID[.JobStep] Array jobs are in the form: ArrayJobID_ArrayTaskID Heterogeneous jobs are in the form: HetJobID+HetJobOffset When printing job arrays, performance of the command can be measurably improved for systems with large num- bers of jobs when a single job ID is specified. By de- fault, this field size will be limited to 64 bytes. Use the environment variable SLURM_BITSTR_LEN to spec- ify larger field sizes. JobIDRaw The identification number of the job or job step. Prints the JobID in the form JobID[.JobStep] for regu- lar, heterogeneous and array jobs. JobName The name of the job or job step. The slurm_account- ing.log file is a space delimited file. Because of this if a space is used in the jobname an underscore is substituted for the space before the record is written to the accounting file. So when the jobname is displayed by sacct the jobname that had a space in it will now have an underscore in place of the space. Layout What the layout of a step was when it was running. This can be used to give you an idea of which node ran which rank in your job. MaxDiskRead Maximum number of bytes read by all tasks in job. MaxDiskReadNode The node on which the maxdiskread occurred. MaxDiskReadTask The task ID where the maxdiskread occurred. MaxDiskWrite Maximum number of bytes written by all tasks in job. MaxDiskWriteNode The node on which the maxdiskwrite occurred. MaxDiskWriteTask The task ID where the maxdiskwrite occurred. MaxPages Maximum number of page faults of all tasks in job. MaxPagesNode The node on which the maxpages occurred. MaxPagesTask The task ID where the maxpages occurred. MaxRSS Maximum resident set size of all tasks in job. MaxRSSNode The node on which the maxrss occurred. MaxRSSTask The task ID where the maxrss occurred. MaxVMSize Maximum Virtual Memory size of all tasks in job. MaxVMSizeNode The node on which the maxvmsize occurred. MaxVMSizeTask The task ID where the maxvmsize occurred. MCSLabel Multi-Category Security (MCS) label associated with the job. Added to a job when the MCSPlugin is enabled in the slurm.conf. MinCPU Minimum (system + user) CPU time of all tasks in job. MinCPUNode The node on which the mincpu occurred. MinCPUTask The task ID where the mincpu occurred. NCPUS Total number of CPUs allocated to the job. Equivalent to AllocCPUS. NNodes Number of nodes in a job or step. If the job is run- ning, or ran, this count will be the number allocated, else the number will be the number requested. NodeList List of nodes in job/step. NTasks Total number of tasks in a job or step. Partition Identifies the partition on which the job ran. Planned How much wall clock time was used as planned time for this job. This is derived from how long a job was waiting from eligible time to when it started or was cancelled. Format is the same as Elapsed. PlannedCPU How many CPU seconds were used as planned time for this job. Format is the same as Elapsed. PlannedCPURAW How many CPU seconds were used as planned time for this job. Format is in processor seconds. Priority Slurm priority. QOS Name of Quality of Service. QOSRAW Numeric id of Quality of Service. Reason The last reason a job was blocked from running for something other than Priority or Resources. This will be saved in the database even if the job ran to com- pletion. ReqCPUFreq Requested CPU frequency for the step, in kHz. Note: This value applies only to a job step. No value is re- ported for the job. ReqCPUFreqGov Requested CPU frequency governor for the step, in kHz. Note: This value applies only to a job step. No value is reported for the job. ReqCPUFreqMax Maximum requested CPU frequency for the step, in kHz. Note: This value applies only to a job step. No value is reported for the job. ReqCPUFreqMin Minimum requested CPU frequency for the step, in kHz. Note: This value applies only to a job step. No value is reported for the job. ReqCPUS Number of requested CPUs. ReqMem Minimum required memory for the job. It may have a letter appended to it indicating units (M for megabytes, G for gigabytes, etc.). Note: This value is only from the job allocation, not the step. ReqNodes Requested minimum Node count for the job/step. ReqTres Trackable resources. These are the minimum resource counts requested by the job/step at submission time. For more details see AccountingStorageTRES in slurm.conf. Reservation Reservation Name. ReservationId Reservation Id. Start Initiation time of the job. In the same format as End. State Displays the job status, or state. See the JOB STATE CODES section below for a list of possible states. If more information is available on the job state than will fit into the current field width (for example, the UID that CANCELLED a job) the state will be fol- lowed by a "+". You can increase the size of the dis- played state using the "%NUMBER" format modifier de- scribed earlier. NOTE: The RUNNING state will return suspended jobs as well. In order to print suspended jobs you must re- quest SUSPENDED at a different call from RUNNING. NOTE: The RUNNING state will return any jobs completed (cancelled or otherwise) in the time period requested as the job was also RUNNING during that time. If you are only looking for jobs that finished, please choose the appropriate state(s) without the RUNNING state. Submit The time the job was submitted. In the same format as End. NOTE: If a job is requeued, the submit time is reset. To obtain the original submit time it is necessary to use the -D or --duplicate option to display all dupli- cate entries for a job. SubmitLine The full command issued to submit the job. Suspended The amount of time a job or job step was suspended. Format is the same as Elapsed. SystemComment The job's comment string that is typically set by a plugin. Can only be modified by a Slurm administra- tor. SystemCPU The amount of system CPU time used by the job or job step. Format is the same as Elapsed. NOTE: See the note for TotalCPU for information about how canceled jobs are handled. Timelimit What the timelimit was/is for the job. Format is the same as Elapsed, but two additional special values can be displayed: Partition_limit Indicates that the job did not have its time limit set and was not yet subjected to a parti- tion MaxTime (i.e. job is pending). You can de- fine the DefaultTime on the partition to avoid seeing this value. UNLIMITED Indicates the job did not have a time limit de- fined. TimelimitRaw What the timelimit was/is for the job. Format is in number of minutes. NOTE: See TimeLimit description. TotalCPU The sum of the SystemCPU and UserCPU time used by the job or job step. The total CPU time of the job may exceed the job's elapsed time for jobs that include multiple job steps. Format is the same as Elapsed. NOTE: For the steps interrupted by signal (e.g. scan- cel, job timeout) TotalCPU provides a measure of the task's parent process and may not include CPU time of child processes. This is a result of wait3 resource usage (getrusage) internals. For processes completing in regular way all the descendant processes (forks and execs) resources are included. However, if the processes are killed the result may differ between proctrack plugins and end-user applications. TresUsageInAve Tres average usage in by all tasks in job. NOTE: If corresponding TresUsageInMaxTask is -1 the metric is node centric instead of task. TresUsageInMax Tres maximum usage in by all tasks in job. NOTE: If corresponding TresUsageInMaxTask is -1 the metric is node centric instead of task. TresUsageInMaxNode Node for which each maximum TRES usage out occurred. TresUsageInMaxTask Task for which each maximum TRES usage out occurred. TresUsageInMin Tres minimum usage in by all tasks in job. NOTE: If corresponding TresUsageInMinTask is -1 the metric is node centric instead of task. TresUsageInMinNode Node for which each minimum TRES usage out occurred. TresUsageInMinTask Task for which each minimum TRES usage out occurred. TresUsageInTot Tres total usage in by all tasks in job. TresUsageOutAve Tres average usage out by all tasks in job. NOTE: If corresponding TresUsageOutMaxTask is -1 the metric is node centric instead of task. TresUsageOutMax Tres maximum usage out by all tasks in job. NOTE: If corresponding TresUsageOutMaxTask is -1 the metric is node centric instead of task. TresUsageOutMaxNode Node for which each maximum TRES usage out occurred. TresUsageOutMaxTask Task for which each maximum TRES usage out occurred. TresUsageOutMin Tres minimum usage out by all tasks in job. TresUsageOutMinNode Node for which each minimum TRES usage out occurred. TresUsageOutMinTask Task for which each minimum TRES usage out occurred. TresUsageOutTot Tres total usage out by all tasks in job. UID The user identifier of the user who ran the job. User The user name of the user who ran the job. UserCPU The amount of user CPU time used by the job or job step. Format is the same as Elapsed. NOTE: See the note for TotalCPU for information about how canceled jobs are handled. WCKey Workload Characterization Key. Arbitrary string for grouping orthogonal accounts together. WCKeyID Reference to the wckey. WorkDir The directory used by the job to execute commands. JOB STATE CODES BF BOOT_FAIL Job terminated due to launch failure, typically due to a hardware failure (e.g. unable to boot the node or block and the job can not be requeued). CA CANCELLED Job was explicitly cancelled by the user or system administrator. The job may or may not have been initiated. CD COMPLETED Job has terminated all processes on all nodes with an exit code of zero. DL DEADLINE Job terminated on deadline. F FAILED Job terminated with non-zero exit code or other failure condition. NF NODE_FAIL Job terminated due to failure of one or more allo- cated nodes. OOM OUT_OF_MEMORY Job experienced out of memory error. PD PENDING Job is awaiting resource allocation. PR PREEMPTED Job terminated due to preemption. R RUNNING Job currently has an allocation. RQ REQUEUED Job was requeued. RS RESIZING Job is about to change size. RV REVOKED Sibling was removed from cluster due to other clus- ter starting the job. S SUSPENDED Job has an allocation, but execution has been sus- pended and CPUs have been released for other jobs. TO TIMEOUT Job terminated upon reaching its time limit. DEFAULT TIME WINDOW The options --starttime and --endtime define the time window between which sacct is going to search. For historical and practical reasons their default values (i.e. the default time window) depends on other options: --jobs and --state. Depending on if --jobs and/or --state are specified, the default values of --starttime and --endtime options are: WITHOUT EITHER --jobs NOR --state specified: --starttime defaults to Midnight. --endtime defaults to Now. WITH --jobs AND WITHOUT --state specified: --starttime defaults to Epoch 0. --endtime defaults to Now. WITHOUT --jobs AND WITH --state specified: --starttime defaults to Now. --endtime defaults to --starttime and to Now if --starttime is not specified. WITH BOTH --jobs AND --state specified: --starttime defaults to Epoch 0. --endtime defaults to --starttime or to Now if --starttime is not spec- ified. NOTE: With -v/--verbose a message about the actual time window in use is shown. PERFORMANCE Executing sacct sends a remote procedure call to slurmdbd. If enough calls from sacct or other Slurm client commands that send remote proce- dure calls to the slurmdbd daemon come in at once, it can result in a degradation of performance of the slurmdbd daemon, possibly resulting in a denial of service. Do not run sacct or other Slurm client commands that send remote proce- dure calls to slurmdbd from loops in shell scripts or other programs. Ensure that programs limit calls to sacct to the minimum necessary for the information you are trying to gather. ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES Some sacct options may be set via environment variables. These environ- ment variables, along with their corresponding options, are listed be- low. (Note: Command line options will always override these settings.) SACCT_FEDERATION Same as --federation SACCT_FORMAT Allows you to define the columns to display in the output. Same as --format SACCT_LOCAL Same as --local SLURM_BITSTR_LEN Specifies the string length to be used for holding a job array's task ID expression. The default value is 64 bytes. A value of 0 will print the full ex- pression with any length required. Larger values may adversely impact the application performance. SLURM_CONF The location of the Slurm configuration file. SLURM_DEBUG_FLAGS Specify debug flags for sacct to use. See De- bugFlags in the slurm.conf(5) man page for a full list of flags. The environment variable takes precedence over the setting in the slurm.conf. SLURM_TIME_FORMAT Specify the format used to report time stamps. A value of standard, the default value, generates output in the form "year-month-dateThour:minute:second". A value of relative returns only "hour:minute:second" if the current day. For other dates in the current year it prints the "hour:minute" preceded by "Tomorr" (tomorrow), "Ystday" (yesterday), the name of the day for the coming week (e.g. "Mon", "Tue", etc.), otherwise the date (e.g. "25 Apr"). For other years it returns a date month and year without a time (e.g. "6 Jun 2012"). All of the time stamps use a 24 hour format. A valid strftime() format can also be specified. For example, a value of "%a %T" will report the day of the week and a time stamp (e.g. "Mon 12:34:56"). EXAMPLES This example illustrates the default invocation of the sacct command: # sacct Jobid Jobname Partition Account AllocCPUS State ExitCode ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- -------- 2 script01 srun acct1 1 RUNNING 0 3 script02 srun acct1 1 RUNNING 0 4 endscript srun acct1 1 RUNNING 0 4.0 srun acct1 1 COMPLETED 0 This example shows the same job accounting information with the brief option. # sacct --brief Jobid State ExitCode ---------- ---------- -------- 2 RUNNING 0 3 RUNNING 0 4 RUNNING 0 4.0 COMPLETED 0 # sacct --allocations Jobid Jobname Partition Account AllocCPUS State ExitCode ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- ------- ---------- -------- 3 sja_init andy acct1 1 COMPLETED 0 4 sjaload andy acct1 2 COMPLETED 0 5 sja_scr1 andy acct1 1 COMPLETED 0 6 sja_scr2 andy acct1 18 COMPLETED 2 7 sja_scr3 andy acct1 18 COMPLETED 0 8 sja_scr5 andy acct1 2 COMPLETED 0 9 sja_scr7 andy acct1 90 COMPLETED 1 10 endscript andy acct1 186 COMPLETED 0 This example demonstrates the ability to customize the output of the sacct command. The fields are displayed in the order designated on the command line. # sacct --format=jobid,elapsed,ncpus,ntasks,state Jobid Elapsed Ncpus Ntasks State ---------- ---------- ---------- -------- ---------- 3 00:01:30 2 1 COMPLETED 3.0 00:01:30 2 1 COMPLETED 4 00:00:00 2 2 COMPLETED 4.0 00:00:01 2 2 COMPLETED 5 00:01:23 2 1 COMPLETED 5.0 00:01:31 2 1 COMPLETED This example demonstrates the use of the -T (--truncate) option when used with -S (--starttime) and -E (--endtime). When the -T option is used, the start time of the job will be the specified -S value if the job was started before the specified time, otherwise the time will be the job's start time. The end time will be the specified -E option if the job ends after the specified time, otherwise it will be the jobs end time. Without -T (normal operation) sacct output would be like this. # sacct -S2014-07-03-11:40 -E2014-07-03-12:00 -X -ojobid,start,end,state JobID Start End State --------- --------------------- -------------------- ------------ 2 2014-07-03T11:33:16 2014-07-03T11:59:01 COMPLETED 3 2014-07-03T11:35:21 Unknown RUNNING 4 2014-07-03T11:35:21 2014-07-03T11:45:21 COMPLETED 5 2014-07-03T11:41:01 Unknown RUNNING By adding the -T option the job's start and end times are truncated to reflect only the time requested. If a job started after the start time requested or finished before the end time requested those times are not altered. The -T option is useful when determining exact run times dur- ing any given period. # sacct -T -S2014-07-03-11:40 -E2014-07-03-12:00 -X -ojobid,jobname,user,start,end,state JobID Start End State --------- --------------------- -------------------- ------------ 2 2014-07-03T11:40:00 2014-07-03T11:59:01 COMPLETED 3 2014-07-03T11:40:00 2014-07-03T12:00:00 RUNNING 4 2014-07-03T11:40:00 2014-07-03T11:45:21 COMPLETED 5 2014-07-03T11:41:01 2014-07-03T12:00:00 RUNNING NOTE: If no -s (--state) option is given sacct will display eligible jobs during the specified period of time, otherwise it will return jobs that were in the state requested during that period of time. This example demonstrates the differences running sacct with and with- out the --state flag for the same time period. Without the --state op- tion, all eligible jobs in that time period are shown. # sacct -S11:20:00 -E11:25:00 -X -ojobid,start,end,state JobID Start End State ------------ ------------------- ------------------- ---------- 2955 11:15:12 11:20:12 COMPLETED 2956 11:20:13 11:25:13 COMPLETED With the --state=pending option, only job 2956 will be shown because it had a dependency on 2955 and was still PENDING from 11:20:00 until it started at 11:21:13. Note that even though we requested PENDING jobs, the State shows as COMPLETED because that is the current State of the job. # sacct --state=pending -S11:20:00 -E11:25:00 -X -ojobid,start,end,state JobID Start End State ------------ ------------------- ------------------- ---------- 2956 11:20:13 11:25:13 COMPLETED COPYING Copyright (C) 2005-2007 Copyright Hewlett-Packard Development Company L.P.
