See the SLURM squeue documentation for the full list of job states/reason codes. Here we list the most frequently encountered job states on HiPerGator for quick reference.

  • BadConstraints: The job resource request or constraints cannot be satisfied. The resource request includes such parameters as nodes, ntask, cpus-per-task, gpus (or gres=gpu...), partition, feature, constraint. In some cases this state is temporary e.g. if a job requests a full node or a large enough portion of a node that the scheduler cannot find appropriate resources right away.
  • Resources: The job request is waiting for resources. This could be due to a large number of job requests in the queue, and the scheduler cannot provide the resources immediately.
  • QOSGrpCpuLimit: All CPU cores available for the listed account within the respective QOS are in use.
  • QOSGrpMemLimit: All memory available for the listed account within the respective QOS as described in the previous section is in use.
