NAME
sprio - view the factors that comprise a job's scheduling priority
SYNOPSIS
sprio [OPTIONS...]
DESCRIPTION
sprio is used to view the components of a job's scheduling priority when the multi-factor priority plugin
is installed. sprio is a read-only utility that extracts information from the multi-factor priority
plugin. By default, sprio returns information for all pending jobs. Options exist to display specific
jobs by job ID and user name.
OPTIONS
-M, --clusters=<string>
The cluster to issue commands to. Only one cluster name may be specified. Note that the slurmdbd
must be up for this option to work properly, unless running in a federation with either
FederationParameters=fed_display configured or the --federation option set. This option
implicitly sets the --local option.
--federation
Show jobs in federation if a member of one.
-o, --format=<output_format>
Specify the information to be displayed, its size and position (right or left justified). The
default formats when all factors have been assigned non-zero weights are
default "%.15i %9r %.10Y %.10S %.10A %.10B %.10F %.10J %.10P %.10Q %20T"
-l, --long "%.15i %9r %.8u %.8o %.10Y %.10S %.10A %.10B %.10F %.10J %.10P %.10n %.10Q %.11N
%.20T";
The format of each field is "%[.][size]type".
size is the minimum field size. If no size is specified, whatever is needed to print the
information will be used.
. indicates the output should be left justified. By default, output is right justified.
Valid type specifications include:
%a Normalized age priority
%A Weighted age priority
%b Normalized association priority
%B Weighted association priority
%c Cluster name. Only applicable for federated clusters
%f Normalized fair-share priority
%F Weighted fair-share priority
%i Job ID
%j Normalized job size priority
%J Weighted job size priority
%n QOS name
%N Nice adjustment
%o Account name
%p Normalized partition priority
%P Weighted partition priority
%q Normalized quality of service priority
%Q Weighted quality of service priority
%r Partition name
%S Weighted admin priority.
%t Normalized TRES priorities
%T Weighted TRES priorities
%u User name for a job
%Y Job priority
%y Normalized job priority
--help Print a help message describing all options sprio.
-j, --jobs=<job_id_list>
Requests a comma separated list of job ids to display. Defaults to all jobs. Since this option's
argument is optional, for proper parsing the single letter option must be followed immediately
with the value and not include a space between them. For example "-j1008,1009" and not "-j
1008,1009".
--local
Show only jobs local to this cluster. Ignore other clusters in this federation (if any). Overrides
--federation.
-l, --long
Report more of the available information for the selected jobs.
-h, --noheader
Do not print a header on the output.
-n, --norm
Display the normalized priority factors for the selected jobs.
-p, --partition=<partition_list>
Requests a comma separated list of partitions to display. Defaults to all partitions.
--sibling
Show all sibling jobs on a federated cluster. Without this option in a federated cluster, each job
in each partition will have its priority and its components reported for only one cluster. Each
sibling job on the various clusters in the federation may have different priority, which will not
be reported without using this option. Implicitly adds "%c" (cluster name) to the output format.
-S, --sort=<sort_list>
Specification of the order in which jobs should be reported. This uses the same field
specification as <output_format>. Multiple sorts may be performed by listing multiple sort fields
separated by commas. The field specifications may be preceded by "+" or "-" for ascending
(default) or descending respectively. For example, a <sort_list> of "u,r,-y" will sort the job
priority reports by username, partition name, and descending job priority, in that order. The
default <sort_list> is "i" (ascending job id).
--usage
Print a brief help message listing the sprio options.
-u, --user=<user_list>
Request jobs from a comma separated list of users. The list can consist of user names or user id
numbers.
-v, --verbose
Report details of sprios actions.
-V, --version
Print version information and exit.
-w, --weights
Display the configured weights for each factor. This is for information purposes only. Actual job
data is suppressed.
PERFORMANCE
Executing sprio sends a remote procedure call to slurmctld. If enough calls from sprio or other Slurm
client commands that send remote procedure calls to the slurmctld daemon come in at once, it can result
in a degradation of performance of the slurmctld daemon, possibly resulting in a denial of service.
Do not run sprio or other Slurm client commands that send remote procedure calls to slurmctld from loops
in shell scripts or other programs. Ensure that programs limit calls to sprio to the minimum necessary
for the information you are trying to gather.
ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
If no corresponding command line option is specified, sprio will use the value of the following
environment variables.
SLURM_CLUSTERS Same as --clusters
SLURM_CONF The location of the Slurm configuration file.
SLURM_DEBUG_FLAGS Specify debug flags for sprio to use. See DebugFlags in the slurm.conf(5) man page
for a full list of flags. The environment variable takes precedence over the setting
in the slurm.conf.
SPRIO_FEDERATION Same as --federation
SPRIO_FORMAT Same as -o <output_format>, --format=<output_format>
SPRIO_LOCAL Same as --local
SPRIO_SIBLING Same as --sibling
