SYNOPSIS
sinfo [options]
DESCRIPTION
sinfo reports the state of partitions and nodes managed by Slurm. It shows information about available computing resources including node counts, partition limits, and current states.
Common node states include: idle (available), allocated (in use), down (unavailable), drain (draining), and mix (some CPUs allocated).
PARAMETERS
-s, --summarize
Display summary of partitions-p, --partition _name_
Show specific partition-t, --states _states_
Filter by node state (idle, allocated, down, etc.)-d, --dead
Show only non-responding nodes-R, --list-reasons
List reasons nodes are down or drained-l, --long
Long output format with more details-N, --Node
Display node-centric output-o, --format _format_
Customize output format
CAVEATS
Information reflects the current Slurm scheduler state, which may have brief delays from actual node status. Complex clusters may require filtering to view relevant information.
