Hi there,

Does anyone have a particularly clever way, either built-in or scripted, to 
find out which jobs will still be running at such-and-such time? I bet anyone 
who’s made the mistake of not entering a maintenance reservation soon enough 
knows the feeling.

I know that jobs /may/ end earlier, but we’re looking for the potential.

I originally started looking for jobs with an EndTime= that overlapped with the 
maintenance, using "scontrol show job” and excluding jobs that had a StartTime= 
that was after the maintenance. Today I had a minor panic as many many new jobs 
had an EndTime= that overlapped with the maintenance, but a StartTime= that was 
after we put in the maintenance reservation but before the maintenance period. 
Come to find they were still pending. Not sure why they have a StartTime= that 
is before the reservation, but it appears as if they won’t be running.

Anyway, I figure this is something people probably need to know often enough. 
Any tips?
