Hi,
We have noticed the same issue: when using JobAcctGatherType=jobacct_gather/linux, the reported CPU usage is 0 for all steps. If the user only use sbatch without using any step (so no srun) then the value is correct.
jobacct_gather/cgroup reports correct values for CPU, but wrong values for memory so pick your poison (cf. https://groups.google.com/g/slurm-users/c/tlFA2e74wZc ). If CPU usage is what matters to you, you should probably switch to jobacct_gather/cgroup if you don't use it already.

Hi we have a slurm v25.05.2 setup. we found any srun jobs are always shows 0 on UserCPU . for sbatch jobs shoiws normal. is this expected or it is a bug ? Thanks. sacct -j 2948 --format=AveCPU,UserCPU AveCPU UserCPU ---------- ---------- 00:00:00 00:02:00 00:00:00
