[slurm-users] Usage gathering for GPUs

Hi all,

  I'm trying to get working the gathering of gres/gpumem and 
gres/gpuutil on Slurm 23.02.2 , but with no success yet.

We have:
AccountingStorageTRES=cpu,mem,gres/gpu
in the slurm.conf and Slurm is build with NVML support.

Autodetect=NVML
in gres.conf

gres/gpumem and gres/gpuutil now appears in sacct TRESUsageInAve record, 
but with zero values:

sacct -j 6056927_51 -Pno TRESUsageInAve

cpu=00:00:07,energy=0,fs/disk=14073059,gres/gpumem=0,gres/gpuutil=0,mem=6456K,pages=0,vmem=7052K
cpu=00:00:00,energy=0,fs/disk=2332,gres/gpumem=0,gres/gpuutil=0,mem=44K,pages=0,vmem=44K
cpu=05:18:51,energy=0,fs/disk=708800,gres/gpumem=0,gres/gpuutil=0,mem=2565376K,pages=0,vmem=2961244K

We are using NVIDIA Tesla V100 and A100 GPUs with driver version 
530.30.02. dcgm-exporter is working on the nodes.

Is there anything else needed, to get it working?

Thanks in advanced.    Daniel Vecerka
