SSTAT(1) Slurm components SSTAT(1)
NAME
sstat - Display various 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 installed and operational.
-a, --allsteps
Print all steps for the given job(s) when no step is specified.
-e, --helpformat
Print a list of fields that can be specified with the '--format' option.
-h, --help
Displays a general help message.
-i, --pidformat
Predefined format to list the pids running for each job step. (JobId,Nodes,Pids)
-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 lowest 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 information about the batch step.
-n, --noheader
No heading will be added to the output. The default action is to display a header.
-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.
-p, --parsable
output will be '|' delimited with a '|' at the end
-P, --parsable2
output will be '|' delimited without a '|' at the end
--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
The following are the field options:
AveCPU Average (system + user) CPU time of 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.
JobID The number of the job or job step. It is in the form: job.jobstep.
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 maxvsize occurred.
MaxVMSizeTask
The task ID where the maxvsize occurred.
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.
NTasks Total number of tasks in a job or step.
