SYNOPSIS
sinfo [options]
DESCRIPTION
sinfo reports the state of partitions and nodes managed by Slurm. It shows information about available computing resources including node counts, partition limits, and current states.Common node states include: idle (available), allocated (in use), down (unavailable), drain (draining), and mix (some CPUs allocated).

INSTALL
sudo apt install slurm-client
CAVEATS
Information reflects the current Slurm scheduler state, which may have brief delays from actual node status. Complex clusters may require filtering to view relevant information.
