The squeue command can report on jobs in the job queue according to their state; possible states are: pending, running, completing, completed, failed, timeout, and node_fail. Example 8-3uses the squeue command to report on failed jobs.

Terminating Jobs with the scancel Command

The scancel command cancels a pending or running job or job step. It can also be used to send a specified signal to all processes on all nodes associated with a job. Only job owners or administrators can cancel jobs.

Example 8-4kills job 415 and all its jobsteps.

Example 8-4 Killing a Job by Its JobID

$ scancel 415

Example 8-5cancels all pending jobs.

Example 8-5 Cancelling All Pending Jobs

$ scancel --state=PENDING

Example 8-6sends the TERM signal to terminate jobsteps 421.2 and 421.3.

Example 8-6 Sending a Signal to a Job

$ scancel --signal=TERM 421.2 421.3

Getting System Information with the sinfo Command

The sinfo command reports the state of partitions and nodes managed by SLURM. It has a wide variety of filtering, sorting, and formatting options. sinfo displays a summary of available partition and node (not job) information, such as partition names, nodes/partition, and cores/node.

Example 8-7

Job Accounting

HP XC System Software provides an extension to SLURM for job accounting. The sacct command displays job accounting data in a variety of forms for your analysis. Job accounting data is stored in a log file; the sacct command filters that log file to report on your jobs, jobsteps, status, and errors. See your system administrator if job accounting is not configured on your system.

By default, only the superuser is allowed to access the job accounting data. To grant all system users read access to this data, the superuser must change the permission of the jobacct.log file, as follows:
