sstat(1)			Slurm Commands			      sstat(1)

NAME
       sstat - Display the status information of a running job/step.

SYNOPSIS
       sstat [OPTIONS...]

DESCRIPTION
       Status information for running jobs invoked with	Slurm.

       The  sstat  command  displays job status	information for	your analysis.
       The sstat command displays information pertaining to CPU,  Task,	 Node,
       Resident	 Set  Size  (RSS) and Virtual Memory (VM).  You	can tailor the
       output with the use of the --fields= option to specify the fields to be
       shown.

       For the root user, the sstat command displays job status	data  for  any
       job running on the system.

       For the non-root	user, the sstat	output is limited to the user's	jobs.

       NOTE:  The sstat	command	requires that the jobacct_gather plugin	be in-
       stalled and operational.

       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.

OPTIONS
       -a, --allsteps
	      Print all	steps for the given job(s) when	no step	is specified.

       -o, --format, --fields
	      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 characters
	      should be	printed.

	      i.e. format=name%30 will print 30	characters of field name right
	      justified. A -30 will print 30 characters	left justified.

       -h, --help
	      Displays a general help message.

       -e, --helpformat
	      Print a list of fields that can be specified with	the '--format'
	      option.

       -j, --jobs
	      Format is	<job(.step)>. Stat this	job  step  or  comma-separated
	      list  of	job  steps.  This option is required. The step portion
	      will default to the lowest numbered  (not	 batch,	 extern,  etc)
	      step running if not specified, unless the	--allsteps flag	is set
	      where  not specifying a step will	result in all running steps to
	      be displayed.  NOTE: A step id of	'batch'	will display  the  in-
	      formation	 about	the  batch  step.  NOTE: A step	id of 'extern'
	      will display the information about the extern step. This step is
	      only available when using	PrologFlags=contain

       --noconvert
	      Don't convert units from their original type (e.g.  2048M	 won't
	      be converted to 2G).

       -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

       -P, --parsable2
	      output will be '|' delimited without a '|' at the	end

       -i, --pidformat
	      Predefined  format  to  list the pids running for	each job step.
	      (JobId,Nodes,Pids)

       --usage
	      Display a	command	usage summary.

       -v, --verbose
	      Primarily	for debugging purposes,	report the  state  of  various
	      variables	during processing.

       -V, --version
	      Print version.

   Job Status Fields
       Descriptions  of	 each  field option 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.

PERFORMANCE
       Executing  sstat	 sends a remote	procedure call to slurmctld. If	enough
       calls from sstat	or other Slurm client commands that send remote	proce-
       dure calls to the slurmctld daemon come in at once, it can result in  a
       degradation  of performance of the slurmctld daemon, possibly resulting
       in a denial of service.

       Do not run sstat	or other Slurm client commands that send remote	proce-
       dure calls to slurmctld from loops in shell scripts or other  programs.
       Ensure  that programs limit calls to sstat to the minimum necessary for
       the information you are trying to gather.

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
       Some sstat 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.)

       SLURM_CONF	   The location	of the Slurm configuration file.

       SLURM_DEBUG_FLAGS   Specify  debug  flags  for  sstat  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.

EXAMPLES
       Display job step	information for	job 11 with the	specified fields:

	      $	sstat --format=AveCPU,AvePages,AveRSS,AveVMSize,JobID -j 11
	      25:02.000	 0K	    1.37M      5.93M	  9.0

       Display job step	information for	job 11 with the	specified fields in a
       parsable	format:

	      $	sstat -p --format=AveCPU,AvePages,AveRSS,AveVMSize,JobID -j 11
	      25:02.000|0K|1.37M|5.93M|9.0|
