Hello,
We are looking to optimize the GPU jobs of our HPC users, is it possible to add GPU info in the seff?
It will be great to know how much GPU resources the users request and compare with how much GPU resources they use.
Various sites have produced their own versions of 'seff'-like programs. We currently use
https://github.com/PrincetonUniversity/jobstats
which reports CPU, memory and GPU utility as well as providing suggestions to users about the amount of resources users should request for similar future jobs.
Cheers,

Both seff and jobstats were created by the same group of people at Princeton University.

I just e-mailed one of the developers/maintainers of seff and jobstats. seff is being deprecated because it uses the Slurm Perl API which SchedMD is moving away from. For their own in-house use, jobstats has largely replaced seff, but moving to jobstats requires setting up additional machinery which seff doesn't require, so jobstats is not a 1:1 replacement for seff.
Unfortunately, it doesn't look like GPU support will be added to seff.
