sbank Example Commands

Below is a set of helpful commands to help you better manage the projects you have running at the ALCF.

View your project's allocations

Command: sbank-list-allocations

Use this command to list all of your active allocations for a specific project [Project-X]. This is useful when you need to provide this information in a report.

### List charges for all users in ProjectX on Cooley.
This works for project leads (i.e. PIs, Co-PIs, Proxies), since they can see everything in their own projects.

## View your project's jobs
List jobs for user "userx" for jobs that started in the range 2016-02-15<= started < 2016-02-29 and add the transactions related to the job

### **Command:** sbank-list-jobs

**Note:** The job with the refund ```transaction_ids_list field can be shorten all the way to "t" in the -f "+ t"```

### List the nodes used, runtime and start timestamp for Cooley job 744160
**Note**: To display the date and time we increased the the number of characters of start_timestamp to 19

### **Command:** sbank-list-transactions

List of transactions that where at or after 2016-02-29 for ProjectX add fields: job_duration, nodes_used and hosts

**Note**: 
- job_duration, nodes_used and hosts are shorten, but they are still uniquely identified
- host has the left justified width of 20, specified as "h:-20"
