Hello all,
Each week, I generate an automated report of the top users by CPU hours. This week, for whatever reason the user root accounted for a massive number of hours:
-------------------------------------------------------- Login Proper Name Used Account --------------- -------------------- --------- --------- root root 28224 root
I've tried to generate a report on what might account for this, but so far I'm stumped. For example, when I run a typical report:
sacct -o jobid,jobname,start,end,NNodes,NCPUS,ReqMem,CPUTime,AveRSS,MaxRSS -S 2024-04-22 -E 2024-04-29 --user=root --units=G
Nothing comes up (same if I change --user=root to --account=root).
I'd appreciate any thoughts as to how to investigate or understand this. It may well be that I'm missing something fundamental.
Warmest regards, Jason
