    [\fIOPTIONS\fR...]

    .SH "DESCRIPTION"
    .PP
    Status information for running jobs invoked with Slurm.
    .PP
    The
    .BR "sstat "
    command displays job status information for your analysis.
    The
    .BR "sstat "
    command displays information pertaining to CPU, Task, Node, Resident
    Set Size (RSS) and Virtual Memory (VM).
    You can tailor the output with the use of the
    \f3\-\-fields=\fP
    option to specify the fields to be shown.
    .PP
    For the root user, the
    .BR "sstat "
    command displays job status data for any job running on the system.
    .PP
    For the non\-root user, the
    .BR "sstat "
    output is limited to the user's jobs.

    .PP
    NOTE:  The
    .BR "sstat "
    command requires that the \f3jobacct_gather\fP plugin be installed and
    operational.
    .PP
    NOTE:  The
    .BR "sstat "
    command is not supported on Cray ALPS.

    NOTE: When using the format option for listing various fields you can put a
    %NUMBER afterwards to specify how many characters should be printed.

    i.e. format=name%30 will print 30 characters of field name right
    justified.  A \-30 will print 30 characters left justified.

    .SH "PERFORMANCE"
    .PP
    Executing \fBsstat\fR sends a remote procedure call to \fBslurmctld\fR. If
    enough calls from \fBsstat\fR or other Slurm client commands that send remote
    procedure calls to the \fBslurmctld\fR daemon come in at once, it can result in
    a degradation of performance of the \fBslurmctld\fR daemon, possibly resulting
    in a denial of service.
    .PP
    Do not run \fBsstat\fR or other Slurm client commands that send remote procedure
    calls to \fBslurmctld\fR from loops in shell scripts or other programs. Ensure
    that programs limit calls to \fBsstat\fR to the minimum necessary for the
    information you are trying to gather.

    .SH "ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES"
    .PP
    Some \fBsstat\fR options may be set via environment variables. These
    environment variables, along with their corresponding options, are listed below.
    (Note: Command line options will always override these settings.)
    .TP 20
    \fBSLURM_CONF\fR
    The location of the Slurm configuration file.
