Hi,
This is how I gather job information via a SPANK plugin (see below). It's
pretty crude but it dumps some job and step information into a file in /tmp.
As for determining whether a job is exclusive or not. I've not seen a variable
containing that information. I believe you would have to determine whether all
the CPUs on the host have been assigned to the job. For example, I submitted
an exclusive job requesting 1 CPU. Part of the output of the below plugin
tells me I have 3 CPUs on my node (yes, it’s a very small node) and my job has
all 3 CPUs allocated ...
<snip>
SLURM_CPUS_ON_NODE=3
SLURM_JOB_CPUS_PER_NODE=3
<snip>
I am therefore exclusive.

Subject: [slurm-dev] spank plugin <- job information
Hello everybody,
does anybody of you know, how I can get job information in a spank plugin?
Especially I want to know if a job is exclusive or not.
Kind regards,
Danny
