Thanks Ryan,
Is this value stored anywhere in the SLURM accounting DB? I could not find any value for the JOB that corresponds to this RAW usage.

You can take a look at _apply_new_usage() in src/plugins/priority/multifactor/priority_multifactor.c to see exactly what happens.

This number will decay over time when PriorityDecayHalfLife is defined. I am getting different RAW Usage values for the same job every time it is executed. The Job am using is a CPU stress test for 1 minute. It would be very useful to understand the formula for how this RAW Usage is calculated when we are using the plugin PriorityType=priority/multifactor. Snip of my slurm.conf file:- # Activate the Multi-factor Job Priority Plugin with decay PriorityType=priority/multifactor # apply no decay PriorityDecayHalfLife=0 PriorityCalcPeriod=1 PriorityUsageResetPeriod=MONTHLY # The larger the job, the greater its job size priority. PriorityFavorSmall=NO # The job's age factor reaches 1.0 after waiting in the # queue for 2 weeks. PriorityMaxAge=14-0 # This next group determines the weighting of each of the # components of the Multi-factor Job Priority Plugin. # The default value for each of the following is 1. PriorityWeightAge=0 PriorityWeightFairshare=100 PriorityWeightJobSize=0 PriorityWeightPartition=0 PriorityWeightQOS=0 # don't use the qos factor Thanks!
