It might be that if jobs are being set to be requeued then you'll need 
to use the --duplicates option to sacct to see previous iterations of 
the job when it was preempted.


Best of luck!

[slurm-users] Question about determining pre-empted jobs

[Jeffrey R. Lang]

I need your help.

We have had a request to generate a report showing the number of jobs by date 
showing pre-empted jobs.   We used sacct to try to gather the data but we only 
found a few jobs with the state "PREEMPTED".

Scanning the slurmd logs we find there are a lot of job that show pre-empted.

What is the best way to gather or discover this data?

Thanks
Jeff
