sacct [Options...]

Accounting information for jobs invoked with Slurm are either logged in the job accounting log file or saved to the Slurm database, as configured with the AccountingStorageType parameter.

The sacct command displays job accounting data stored in the job accounting 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 description 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 accounting data to jobs that were launched with their own user identifier (UID) by default. Data for other users can be displayed with the --allusers, --user, or --uid options.

Elapsed time fields are presented as [days-]hours:minutes:seconds[.microseconds]. 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 information about which data are actually available on your system.

-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 PrivateData is not configured to jobs. Otherwise display the current 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 associations.

-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 ExitCode.

-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 federation when executed on a federated cluster. This option implicitly sets the --local option.

-c,  --completion

Use job completion data instead of job accounting. The JobCompType parameter in the slurm.conf file must be defined to a non-none option. Does not support federated cluster information (local data only).

-C,  --constraints=<constraint_list>

Comma separated list to filter jobs based on what constraints/features the job requested. Multiple options will be treated as 'and' not 'or', so the job would need all constraints 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 "submit" time stamp in the data records.

When data for specific jobs are requested with the --jobs option, 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, elevenses (11 AM), 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.

--expand-patterns

Expand any filename patterns from in StdOut, StdErr and StdIn. Fields that map to a range of values will use the first value of the range. For example "%t" for task id will be replaced by "0".

--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 plugin. 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 characters should be printed.

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

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 --format option.

NOTE: When using with Ave[RSS|VM]Size or their values in TRESUsageIn[Ave|Tot]. They represent the average/total of the highest watermarks 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 kernel 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,maxvmsizenode, maxvmsizetask,avevmsize,maxrss,maxrssnode,maxrsstask,averss,maxpages, maxpagesnode,maxpagestask,avepages,mincpu,mincpunode,mincputask,avecpu,ntasks, alloccpus,elapsed,state,exitcode,avecpufreq,reqcpufreqmin,reqcpufreqmax, reqcpufreqgov,reqmem,consumedenergy,maxdiskread,maxdiskreadnode,maxdiskreadtask, avediskread,maxdiskwrite,maxdiskwritenode,maxdiskwritetask,avediskwrite, reqtres,alloctres,tresusageinave,tresusageinmax, tresusageinmaxn,tresusageinmaxt,tresusageinmin,tresusageinminn,tresusageinmint, tresusageintot,tresusageoutmax,tresusageoutmaxn, tresusageoutmaxt,tresusageoutave,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, elevenses (11 AM), 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 CANCELLED) 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 restriction.

-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 accounting database by default. Use this command to make Slurm use a system call to get the UID from the username. This option may be useful in an environment with multiple clusters and one database where the UIDs aren't the same on all clusters.

-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 wckeys 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 selected. If a non-leader heterogeneous job component id is selected 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 heterogeneous job component(s) will be retrieved, even when selecting 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.

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 allocated 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 cluster starting the job.

S   SUSPENDED

Job has an allocation, but execution has been suspended and CPUs have been released for other jobs.

TO  TIMEOUT

Job terminated upon reaching its time limit.

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 specified.

NOTE: With -v/--verbose a message about the actual time window in use is shown.

Executing sacct sends a remote procedure call to slurmdbd. If enough calls from sacct or other Slurm client commands that send remote procedure 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 procedure 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.

Some sacct options may be set via environment variables. These environment variables, along with their corresponding options, are listed below. (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 expression 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 DebugFlags 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").

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

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
---------- ---------- ---------- -------- ----------

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

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 during 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 without the --state flag for the same time period. Without the --state option, 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
