How to delete my defaultwckey ?
by Faraz Hussain 07 Apr '26

07 Apr '26

I want every submitted job to have some value for the wckey, i.e: #SBATCH --wckey=myproject I made the appropriate changes to slurm.conf and slurmdb.conf and it works great. I can track how many hours people are using with those wckeys. But now I want to make it mandatory to use a wckey. To do that I need to delete the default wckey associated with the user's account. I tried doing it as follows, but it still lets me submit jobs without a wckey. It probably thinks I have an "empty" default wckey. sacctmgr mod user fhussa set defaultwckey= [root@mas01 ~]# sacctmgr list user fhussa format=user,defaultwckey User Def WCKey ---------- ---------- fhussa

Difference between sreport and sacct

Hello, I am trying to understand how sreport work. So I run sreport and obtain th estatistics about speciic project. On teh other side, I collected the jobs related to this account using sacct. When I try to sum the numbers, sometimes it don't sum up. I can't see any reservations. This is the sreport I used: sreport --tres cpu cluster AccountUtilizationByUser Start=2021-01-01 account=<account> -t hours -np This is jobs I collected by using sacct: sudo -u slurm sacct -a -S "2021-01-01" -E NOW --format=JobID%100,User,Account%100,State,AllocCPUs,CPUTime%100,CPUTIMERAW%100,ElapsedRaw%100,AllocTres%100,AllocNodes,NodeList,NNodes --noheader --parsable2 | grep <account> I tried to exclude the steps from the main Jobs, so I summed only the main jobs whatever its state (canceled, completed, timeout, fail..). However the sreport occasionally is larger. What I am missing exactly? Warm regards, Hany.
