SYNOPSIS

10       sview

DESCRIPTION

14       sview can be used to view Slurm configuration, job, step, node and par‐
15       titions state information.  Authorized users can also modify select in‐
16       formation.
17
18       The  primary  display modes are Jobs and Partitions, each with a selec‐
19       tion tab.  There is also an optional map of the nodes on the left  side
20       of  the  window  which  will show the nodes associated with each job or
21       partition.  Left-click on the tab of the display you would like to see.
22       Right-click  on  the  tab in order to control which fields will be dis‐
23       played.
24
25       Within the display window, left-click on the header to control the sort
26       order  of  entries (e.g. increasing or decreasing) in the display.  You
27       can also left-click and drag the headers to move them right or left  in
28       the  display.   If a JobID has an arrow next to it, click on that arrow
29       to display or hide information about that job's steps.  Right-click  on
30       a line of the display to get more information about the record.
31
32       There  is  an  Admin  Mode option which permits the user root to modify
33       many of the fields displayed, such as node state or job time limit.  In
34       the  mode,  a Slurm Reconfigure Action is also available.  It is recom‐
35       mended that Admin Mode be used only while  modifications  are  actively
36       being  made.  Disable Admin Mode immediately after the changes to avoid
37       possibly making unintended changes.

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES

41       Some sview options may be set via environment variables. These environ‐
42       ment  variables, along with their corresponding options, are listed be‐
43       low.  (Note: Command line options will always override these settings.)
44
45
46       SLURM_CONF          The location of the Slurm configuration file.

NOTES

49       The sview command can only be build if gtk+-2.0 is installed.   Systems
50       lacking  these  libraries  will  have Slurm installed without the sview
51       command.
52
53       At least some gtk themes are unable to display large numbers  of  lines
54       (jobs,  nodes,  etc).  The  information is still in gtk's internal data
55       structures, but not visible by scrolling down the window.  The gtk2-en‐
56       gines-qtcurve theme does seem to have particularly good scalability.
57
58       Newer  gtk3 themes do not allow the background colors used for the node
59       map to be displayed.
60
61       On systems with the topology/tree plugin configured, the sview  command
62       will  attempt  to  display the nodes on each switch on a separate line.
63       Change the sview configuration for optimal viewing  by  selecting  "Op‐
64       tions"  then "Set Default Settings".  The "Nodes in Row" and "Node But‐
65       ton Size in Pixels" would be the mostly commonly changed options.
