Hello!

We also see this. But in both clusters one is configured with jobacct_gather/linux and the other with jobacct_gather/cgroup. Both cluster are in one setup (slurmdbd)

Best!

Hi,

We have noticed the same issue: when using 
JobAcctGatherType=jobacct_gather/linux, the reported CPU usage is 0 for all 
steps. If the user only use sbatch without using any step (so no srun) then the 
value is correct.

jobacct_gather/cgroup reports correct values for CPU, but wrong values for 
memory so pick your poison 
(cf.https://groups.google.com/g/slurm-users/c/tlFA2e74wZc ). If CPU usage is 
what matters to you, you should probably switch to jobacct_gather/cgroup if you 
don't use it already.
