[slurm-users] sacct fields AllocCPUS and ReqMem are empty

[marcelsommer204 at gmail.com]

Hi,

I have Slurm 17.02.10 installed in a test environment. When I use sacct
-o "JobID,JobName,AllocCPUs,ReqMem,Elapsed" and AccountingStorageType =
accounting_storage/filetxt, the fields AllocCPUS and ReqMem are empty.

       JobID    JobName  AllocCPUS     ReqMem    Elapsed
------------ ---------- ---------- ---------- ----------
371          stress_20s          0         0n   00:00:21
372          stress_20s          0         0n   00:00:21
373          stress_20s          0         0n   00:00:21

When I switch to AccountingStorageType = accounting_storage/slurmdbd and
start the same jobs, the output works fine:

       JobID    JobName  AllocCPUS     ReqMem    Elapsed
------------ ---------- ---------- ---------- ----------
382          stress_20s          1    32004Mn   00:00:20
383          stress_20s          1     2000Mn   00:00:20
384          stress_20s          1     2000Mn   00:00:20

Also, when I set the --starttime filter, it works only with the database.

Does anyone have an explanation for this?
