Very new to SLURM and have not used sreport before so I decided to
try your searches myself to see what they do.
I am running 20.11.3 and it seems to match the data for me for a very
simple case I tested that I could "eyeball"
Looking just at the day 2021-03-09 for user mu40 on account lcn
# sreport -t minutes -T CPU -nP cluster \
AccountUtilizationByUser start='2021-03-09' end='2021-03-10' \
account=lcn format=login,used

mu40|6498
# sreport -t minutes -T gres/gpu -nP cluster \
AccountUtilizationByUser start='2021-03-09' end='2021-03-10' \

So the first job used all 24 hours of that day, the 2nd just 3 seconds
(so ignore it) and the third about 9 hours and 5 minutes
CPU = 24*60*3+(9*60+5)*4 = 6500
GPU = 24*60*2+(9*60+5)*1 = 3425

Dear all,
Hope you can help me!
In our facility we support the users via projects that have time allocations. Given
this we use a simple bank facility developed by us along the ideas of the old code
https://jcftang.github.io/slurm-bank/ <https://jcftang.github.io/slurm-bank/>.
Our implementation differs because we have a QOS per project with a NoDecay
flag. The basic commands used are:
- scontrol show assoc_mgr to read the limits,
- sacctmgr modify qos to modify the limits and,
- sreport to read individual usage.
We have been using this for a while in production without any single issues for
CPU time allocations.
Now we need to implement GPU time allocation as well for our new GPU partition.
While the 2 first commands work fine to set or change the limits with gres/gpu
we seem to get values with sreport that do not add up.
In this case we use:
- command='sreport -t minutes -T gres/gpu -nP cluster AccountUtilizationByUser
start='+date_start+' end='+date_end+' account='+account+' format=login,used'
We have confirmed via the accounting records that the total reported via
scontrol show assoc_mgr is correct while the value given by sreport is totally
off.
Did I misunderstand the sreport man page and the command above is reporting
something else or is this a bug?
We do something similar with "-T cpu", for the CPU part of the code, and the
number match up. We are using slurm 20.02.0.
Best Regards,
MAO
