SGE Account filed format
NAME
accounting – Grid Engine accounting file format
DESCRIPTION
An accounting record is written to the Grid Engine account-
ing file for each job having finished. The accounting file
is processed by qacct(1) to derive accounting statistics.
FORMAT
Each job is represented by a line in the accounting file.
Empty lines and lines which contain one character or less
are ignored. Accounting record entries are separated by
colon (‘:’) signs. The entries denote in their order of
appearance:
qname
Name of the cluster queue in which the job has run.
hostname
Name of the execution host.
group
The effective group id of the job owner when executing the
job.
owner
Owner of the Grid Engine job.
job_name
Job name.
job_number
Job identifier – job number.
account
An account string as specified by the qsub(1) or qalter(1)
-A option.
priority
Priority value assigned to the job corresponding to the
priority parameter in the queue configuration (see
queue_conf(5)).
submission_time
Submission time (GMT unix time stamp). For slave tasks of
tightly integrated parallel jobs, the submission_time is
always set to 0.
start_time
Start time (GMT unix time stamp).
end_time
End time (GMT unix time stamp).
failed
Indicates the problem which occurred in case a job could not
be started on the execution host (e.g. because the owner of
the job did not have a valid account on that machine). If
Grid Engine tries to start a job multiple times, this may
lead to multiple entries in the accounting file correspond-
ing to the same job ID.
exit_status
Exit status of the job script (or Grid Engine specific
status in case of certain error conditions).
ru_wallclock
Difference between end_time and start_time (see above).
The remainder of the accounting entries follows the contents
of the standard UNIX rusage structure as described in
getrusage(2). Depending on the operating system where the
job was executed some of the fields may be 0. The following
entries are provided:
ru_utime
ru_stime
ru_maxrss
ru_ixrss
ru_ismrss
ru_idrss
ru_isrss
ru_minflt
ru_majflt
ru_nswap
ru_inblock
ru_oublock
ru_msgsnd
ru_msgrcv
ru_nsignals
ru_nvcsw
ru_nivcsw
project
The project which was assigned to the job.
department
The department which was assigned to the job.
granted_pe
The parallel environment which was selected for that job.
slots
The number of slots which were dispatched to the job by the
scheduler.
task_number
Array job task index number.
cpu
The cpu time usage in seconds.
mem
The integral memory usage in Gbytes cpu seconds.
io
The amount of data transferred in input/output operations.
category
A string specifying the job category.
iow
The io wait time in seconds.
pe_taskid
If this identifier is set the task was part of a parallel
job and was passed to Grid Engine via the qrsh -inherit
interface.
maxvmem
The maximum vmem size in bytes.
