NAME

       qacct - report and account for Sun Grid Engine usage

SYNOPSIS

       qacct  [  -ar  [ar_id]  ]  [ -A Account ] [ -b BeginTime ] [ -d Days ] [ -e EndTime ] [ -g
       [GroupId|GroupName] ] [ -h [HostName] ] [ -help ] [ -j [job_id|job_name|pattern]  ]  [  -l
       attr=val,...   ] [ -o [Owner] ] [ -pe [PEname] ] [ -q [wc_queue] ] [ -slots [SlotNumber] ]
       [ -t task_id_range_list ] [ -P [Project] ] [ -D [Department] ] [ -f AcctFileName ]

DESCRIPTION

       The qacct utility scans the accounting  data  file  (see  accounting(5))  and  produces  a
       summary  of  information for wall-clock time, cpu-time, and system time for the categories
       of hostname, queue-name, group-name, owner-name,  job-name,  job-ID  and  for  the  queues
       meeting  the  resource requirements as specified with the -l switch.  Combinations of each
       category are permitted. Alternatively, all or specific jobs can  be  listed  with  the  -j
       switch.   For  example  the  search  criteria could include summarizing for a queue and an
       owner, but not for two queues in the same request.

OPTIONS

       -ar [ar_id]
              The ID of the advance reservation for which usage is summarized.  If ar_id  is  not
              given, accounting data is listed for each advance reservation separately.

       -A Account
              The account for jobs to be summarized.

       -b BeginTime
              The   earliest   start   time   for   jobs   to   be   summarized,  in  the  format
              [[CC]YY]MMDDhhmm[.SS]. See also -d option. If CC is not specified, a  YY  of  <  70
              means 20YY.

       -d Days
              The  number  of  days  to  summarize  and  print accounting information on. If used
              together with the -b BeginTime option (see above), jobs started within BeginTime to
              BeginTime  +  Days  are  counted.  If used together with the -e EndTime (see below)
              option, count starts at EndTime - Days.

       -e EndTime
              The  latest   start   time   for   jobs   to   be   summarized,   in   the   format
              [[CC]YY]MMDDhhmm[.SS].  See  also  -d  option. If CC is not specified, a YY of < 70
              means 20YY.

       [-f AcctFileName]
              The accounting file to be used. If omitted, the system default accounting  file  is
              processed.

       -g [GroupId|GroupName]
              The  numeric system group id or the group alphanumeric name of the job owners to be
              included in the  accounting.  If  GroupId/GroupName  is  omitted,  all  groups  are
              accounted.

       -h [HostName]
              The  case-insensitive  name  of  the  host  upon  which  accounting  information is
              requested. If the name is omitted, totals for each host are listed separately.

       -help  Display help information for the qacct command.

       -j [job_id|job_name|pattern]
              The name, a expression for matching names, or ID of the job  during  execution  for
              which  accounting  information is printed. If neither a name nor an ID is given all
              jobs are enlisted.
              This option changes the output format of qacct. If  activated,  CPU  times  are  no
              longer  accumulated  but the "raw" accounting information is printed in a formatted
              form instead.  See accounting(5) for an explanation of the displayed information.

       -l attr=val,...
              A resource requirement specification which must be met by the queues in  which  the
              jobs  being  accounted  were executing. The resource request is very similar to the
              one described in qsub(1).

       -o [Owner]
              The name of the owner of the jobs for which accounting statistics are assembled. If
              the  optional  Owner argument is omitted, a listing of the accounting statistics of
              all job owners being present in the accounting file is produced.

       -pe [PEname]
              The name of the parallel environment for which usage is summarized.  If  PEname  is
              not given, accounting data is listed for each parallel environment separately.

       -q [wc_queue_name]
              A expression for queues for which usage is summarized. All queue instances matching
              the expression will be listed. If no  expression  is  specified,  a  cluster  queue
              summary will be given.

       -slots [SlotNumber]
              The  number  of  queue  slots  for which usage is summarized.  If SlotNumber is not
              given, accounting data is listed for each number of queue slots separately.

       -t task_id_range_list
              Only available together with the -j option described above.

              The -t switch specifies the array job task range, for which accounting  information
              should be printed. Syntax and semantics of task_id_range_list are identical to that
              one described under the -t option to qsub(1).  Please see there  also  for  further
              information on array jobs.

       -P [Project]
              The  name  of  the project for which usage is summarized.  If Project is not given,
              accounting data is listed for each owning project separately.

       -D [Department]
              The name of the department for which usage is summarized.   If  Department  is  not
              given, accounting data is listed for each owning department separately.

ENVIRONMENTAL VARIABLES

       SGE_ROOT       Specifies the location of the Sun Grid Engine standard configuration files.

       SGE_CELL       If  set,  specifies the default Sun Grid Engine cell. To address a Sun Grid
                      Engine cell qacct uses (in the order of precedence):

                             The name of the cell specified in the environment variable SGE_CELL,
                             if it is set.

                             The name of the default cell, i.e. default.

       SGE_DEBUG_LEVEL
                      If  set,  specifies  that debug information should be written to stderr. In
                      addition the level of detail in which debug  information  is  generated  is
                      defined.

       SGE_QMASTER_PORT
                      If  set,  specifies  the  tcp  port  on which sge_qmaster(8) is expected to
                      listen for communication requests.  Most installations will use a  services
                      map entry for the service "sge_qmaster" instead to define that port.

       SGE_EXECD_PORT If  set, specifies the tcp port on which sge_execd(8) is expected to listen
                      for communication requests.  Most installations will  use  a  services  map
                      entry for the service "sge_execd" instead to define that port.
