[slurm-users] sacct --name --status filtering

[Ryan Novosielski]

All I can say is that this has to do with --starttime and that you have to read the manual really carefully about how they interact, including when you have --endtime set. It’s a bit fiddly and annoying, IMO, and I can never quite remember how it works.

What am I misunderstanding about how sacct filtering works here? I would have expected the second command to show the exact same results as the first.
