Job accounting¶
Project website¶
Go to our project service page service.vsc.ac.at and log in with your VSC cluster user. There, at the menu item 'view statistics' the various project resources and their use can be seen. The used up core-h are listed at 'cpu contingent'
sacct¶
In order to customize your accounting request, the command sacct allows for assessing information from the Slurm job accounting log or Slurm database. The default output values are jobs, job steps, status, and exit codes. By specifying the format, the output of sacct can be customized. In the framework of this section only a minimal subset of options is listed.
See the full list of commands here, or via the man pages with zen username@l53:~$man sacct
Some examples are,
[...@... ~]$ sacct -o Account,User,UID,AveCPUFreq,Elapsed,Start,End,TotalCPU
[...@... ~]$ sacct --format=Account,User,UID,AveCPUFreq,Elapsed,Start,End,TotalCPU
[...@... ~]$ sacct --format=JobID,UID,State,ExitCode
[...@... ~]$ sacct -o UID,User,Account,Group,JobID,JobName,Elapsed,Start,End
A shorthand to show all the parameters is,
-l, --long
-o jobid,jobname,partition,maxvmsize,maxvmsizenode,maxvmsizetask, avevmsize,maxrss,maxrssnode,maxrsstask,averss,maxpages,maxpagesnode, maxpagestask,avepages,mincpu,mincpunode,mincputask,avecpu,ntasks, alloccpus,elapsed,state,exitcode,maxdiskread,maxdiskreadnode,maxdiskreadtask, avediskread,maxdiskwrite,maxdiskwritenode,maxdiskwritetask,avediskwrite, allocgres,reqgres
Whereas minimum information (-o jobid,status,exitcode) is returned via the option
-b, --brief
