NAME


sinfo - view information about Slurm nodes and partitions.

SYNOPSIS


sinfo [OPTIONS...]

DESCRIPTION


sinfo is used to view partition and node information for a system running Slurm.

OPTIONS


-a, --all
Display information about all partitions. This causes information to be displayed
about partitions that are configured as hidden and partitions that are unavailable
to user's group.

-b, --bgl
Display information about bglblocks (on Blue Gene systems only).

-d, --dead
If set only report state information for non-responding (dead) nodes.

-e, --exact
If set, do not group node information on multiple nodes unless their configurations
to be reported are identical. Otherwise cpu count, memory size, and disk space for
nodes will be listed with the minimum value followed by a "+" for nodes with the
same partition and state (e.g., "250+").

-h, --noheader
Do not print a header on the output.

--help Print a message describing all sinfo options.

--hide Do not display information about hidden partitions. By default, partitions that are
configured as hidden or are not available to the user's group will not be displayed
(i.e. this is the default behavior).

-i <seconds>, --iterate=<seconds>
Print the state on a periodic basis. Sleep for the indicated number of seconds
between reports. By default, prints a time stamp with the header.

-l, --long
Print more detailed information. This is ignored if the --format option is
specified.

-M, --clusters=<string>
Clusters to issue commands to. Multiple cluster names may be comma separated. A
value of of 'all' will query to run on all clusters.

-n <nodes>, --nodes=<nodes>
Print information only about the specified node(s). Multiple nodes may be comma
separated or expressed using a node range expression. For example "linux[00-07]"
would indicate eight nodes, "linux00" through "linux07." Performance of the
command can be measurably improved for systems with large numbers of nodes when a
single node name is specified.

--noconvert
Don't convert units from their original type (e.g. 2048M won't be converted to 2G).

-N, --Node
Print information in a node-oriented format. The default is to print information
in a partition-oriented format. This is ignored if the --format option is
specified.

-o <output_format>, --format=<output_format>
Specify the information to be displayed using an sinfo format string. Format
strings transparently used by sinfo when running with various options are

default "%#P %.5a %.10l %.6D %.6t %N"

--summarize "%#P %.5a %.10l %.16F %N"

--long "%#P %.5a %.10l %.10s %.4r %.8h %.10g %.6D %.11T %N"

--Node "%#N %.6D %#P %6t"

--long --Node "%#N %.6D %#P %.11T %.4c %.8z %.6m %.8d %.6w %.8f %20E"

--list-reasons "%20E %9u %19H %N"

--long --list-reasons
"%20E %12U %19H %6t %N"

In the above format strings, the use of "#" represents the maximum length of any
partition name or node list to be printed. A pass is made over the records to be
printed to establish the size in order to align the sinfo output, then a second
pass is made over the records to print them. Note that the literal character "#"
itself is not a valid field length specification, but is only used to document this
behaviour.

The field specifications available include:

%all Print all fields available for this data type with a vertical bar separating
each field.

%a State/availability of a partition

%A Number of nodes by state in the format "allocated/idle". Do not use this

%<Number><*>
size of field

-O <output_format>, --Format=<output_format>
Specify the information to be displayed. Also see the -o <output_format>,
--format=<output_format> option described below (which supports greater flexibility
in formatting, but does not support access to all fields because we ran out of
letters). Requests a comma separated list of job information to be displayed.

The format of each field is "type[:[.]size]"

size is the minimum field size. If no size is specified, 20 characters will be
allocated to print the information.

. indicates the output should be right justified and size must be specified.
By default, output is left justified.

Valid type specifications include:

all Print all fields available in the -o format for this data type with a
vertical bar separating each field.

allocmem
Prints the amount of allocated memory on a node.

allocnodes
Allowed allocating nodes.

available

cpus Number of CPUs per node.

cpusload
CPU load of a node.

freemem
Free memory of a node.

cpusstate
Number of CPUs by state in the format "allocated/idle/other/total". Do not
use this with a node state option ("%t" or "%T") or the different node states
will be placed on separate lines.

-p <partition>, --partition=<partition>
Print information only about the specified partition(s). Multiple partitions are
separated by commas.

-r, --responding
If set only report state information for responding nodes.

-R, --list-reasons
List reasons nodes are in the down, drained, fail or failing state. When nodes are
in these states Slurm supports optional inclusion of a "reason" string by an
administrator. This option will display the first 35 characters of the reason
field and list of nodes with that reason for all nodes that are, by default, down,
drained, draining or failing. This option may be used with other node filtering
options (e.g. -r, -d, -t, -n), however, combinations of these options that result
in a list of nodes that are not down or drained or failing will not produce any
output. When used with -l the output additionally includes the current node state.

-s, --summarize
List only a partition state summary with no node state details. This is ignored if
the --format option is specified.

-S <sort_list>, --sort=<sort_list>
Specification of the order in which records should be reported. This uses the same
field specification as the <output_format>. Multiple sorts may be performed by
listing multiple sort fields separated by commas. The field specifications may be
preceded by "+" or "-" for ascending (default) and descending order respectively.
The partition field specification, "P", may be preceded by a "#" to report
partitions in the same order that they appear in Slurm's configuration file,
slurm.conf. For example, a sort value of "+P,-m" requests that records be printed
in order of increasing partition name and within a partition by decreasing memory
size. The default value of sort is "#P,-t" (partitions ordered as configured then
decreasing node state). If the --Node option is selected, the default sort value
is "N" (increasing node name).

-t <states> , --states=<states>
List nodes only having the given state(s). Multiple states may be comma separated
and the comparison is case insensitive. Possible values include (case
insensitive): ALLOC, ALLOCATED, COMP, COMPLETING, DOWN, DRAIN (for node in DRAINING
or DRAINED states), DRAINED, DRAINING, ERR, ERROR, FAIL, FUTURE, FUTR, IDLE, MAINT,
MIX, MIXED, NO_RESPOND, NPC, PERFCTRS, POWER_DOWN, POWER_UP, RESV, RESERVED, UNK,
and UNKNOWN. By default nodes in the specified state are reported whether they are
responding or not. The --dead and --responding options may be used to filtering
nodes by the responding flag.

-T, --reservation
Only display information about Slurm reservations.

--usage
Print a brief message listing the sinfo options.

-v, --verbose
Provide detailed event logging through program execution.

-V, --version
Print version information and exit.

OUTPUT FIELD DESCRIPTIONS


AVAIL Partition state: up or down.

CPUS Count of CPUs (processors) on each node.

S:C:T Count of sockets (S), cores (C), and threads (T) on these nodes.

SOCKETS
Count of sockets on these nodes.

CORES Count of cores on these nodes.

THREADS
Count of threads on these nodes.

GROUPS Resource allocations in this partition are restricted to the named groups. all
indicates that all groups may use this partition.

JOB_SIZE
Minimum and maximum node count that can be allocated to any user job. A single
number indicates the minimum and maximum node count are the same. infinite is used
to identify partitions without a maximum node count.

TIMELIMIT
Maximum time limit for any user job in days-hours:minutes:seconds. infinite is
used to identify partitions without a job time limit.

MEMORY Size of real memory in megabytes on these nodes.

NODELIST or BP_LIST (BlueGene systems only)
Names of nodes associated with this configuration/partition.

NODES Count of nodes with this particular configuration.

NODES(A/I)
Count of nodes with this particular configuration by node state in the form
"available/idle".

NODES(A/I/O/T)
Count of nodes with this particular configuration by node state in the form
"available/idle/other/total".

PARTITION
Name of a partition. Note that the suffix "*" identifies the default partition.

ROOT Is the ability to allocate resources in this partition restricted to user root, yes
or no.

SHARE Will jobs allocated resources in this partition share those resources. no
indicates resources are never shared. exclusive indicates whole nodes are
dedicated to jobs (equivalent to srun --exclusive option, may be used even with
shared/cons_res managing individual processors). force indicates resources are
always available to be shared. yes indicates resource may be shared or not per
job's resource allocation.

STATE State of the nodes. Possible states include: allocated, completing, down, drained,
draining, fail, failing, future, idle, maint, mixed, perfctrs, power_down,
power_up, reserved, and unknown plus Their abbreviated forms: alloc, comp, down,
drain, drng, fail, failg, futr, idle, maint, mix, npc, pow_dn, pow_up, resv, and
unk respectively. Note that the suffix "*" identifies nodes that are presently not
responding.

TMP_DISK
Size of temporary disk space in megabytes on these nodes.

NODE STATE CODES


Node state codes are shortened as required for the field size. These node states may be
followed by a special character to identify state flags associated with the node. The
following node sufficies and states are used:

* The node is presently not responding and will not be allocated any new work. If the
node remains non-responsive, it will be placed in the DOWN state (except in the case
of COMPLETING, DRAINED, DRAINING, FAIL, FAILING nodes).

~ The node is presently in a power saving mode (typically running at reduced frequency).

# The node is presently being powered up or configured.

$ The node is currently in a reservation with a flag value of "maintenance" or is
scheduled to be rebooted.

ALLOCATED The node has been allocated to one or more jobs.

ALLOCATED+ The node is allocated to one or more active jobs plus one or more jobs are in
the process of COMPLETING.

COMPLETING All jobs associated with this node are in the process of COMPLETING. This
node state will be removed when all of the job's processes have terminated and
the Slurm epilog program (if any) has terminated. See the Epilog parameter
description in the slurm.conf man page for more information.

DOWN The node is unavailable for use. Slurm can automatically place nodes in this
state if some failure occurs. System administrators may also explicitly place
nodes in this state. If a node resumes normal operation, Slurm can
automatically return it to service. See the ReturnToService and SlurmdTimeout
parameter descriptions in the slurm.conf(5) man page for more information.

DRAINED The node is unavailable for use per system administrator request. See the
update node command in the scontrol(1) man page or the slurm.conf(5) man page
for more information.

DRAINING The node is currently executing a job, but will not be allocated to additional
jobs. The node state will be changed to state DRAINED when the last job on it
completes. Nodes enter this state per system administrator request. See the
update node command in the scontrol(1) man page or the slurm.conf(5) man page
for more information.

ERROR The node is currently in an error state and not capable of running any jobs.
Slurm can automatically place nodes in this state if some failure occurs.
System administrators may also explicitly place nodes in this state. If a node
resumes normal operation, Slurm can automatically return it to service. See
the ReturnToService and SlurmdTimeout parameter descriptions in the
slurm.conf(5) man page for more information.

FAIL The node is expected to fail soon and is unavailable for use per system
administrator request. See the update node command in the scontrol(1) man
page or the slurm.conf(5) man page for more information.

FAILING The node is currently executing a job, but is expected to fail soon and is
unavailable for use per system administrator request. See the update node
command in the scontrol(1) man page or the slurm.conf(5) man page for more
information.

FUTURE The node is currently not fully configured, but expected to be available at
some point in the indefinite future for use.

IDLE The node is not allocated to any jobs and is available for use.

MAINT The node is currently in a reservation with a flag value of "maintenance" or
is scheduled to be rebooted.

MIXED The node has some of its CPUs ALLOCATED while others are IDLE.

PERFCTRS (NPC)
Network Performance Counters associated with this node are in use, rendering
this node as not usable for any other jobs

POWER_DOWN The node is currently powered down and not capable of running any jobs.

POWER_UP The node is currently in the process of being powered up.

RESERVED The node is in an advanced reservation and not generally available.

UNKNOWN The Slurm controller has just started and the node's state has not yet been
determined.

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES


Some sinfo options may be set via environment variables. These environment variables,
along with their corresponding options, are listed below. (Note: Commandline options will
always override these settings.)

SINFO_ALL -a, --all

SINFO_FORMAT -o <output_format>, --format=<output_format>

SINFO_PARTITION -p <partition>, --partition=<partition>

SINFO_SORT -S <sort>, --sort=<sort>

SLURM_CLUSTERS Same as --clusters

SLURM_CONF The location of the Slurm configuration file.

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").
