The sacct
command is used to display information about job accounting data on a cluster system or a specific job. The --brief
option is used to display a concise summary of job accounting data.
By running sacct --brief
, you will receive a condensed overview of job accounting data. This includes information such as job ID, JobName, User, State, Start Time, End Time, and elapsed time. The output will usually be in a tabular format to allow for easier reading and analysis of the data.
It is a useful command for administrators, system managers, or users who want a quick overview of job accounting metrics without the additional details provided by other sacct
options.
