@Graviton28 please also add info on the jobeff command |
Updated the document to focus on checking running jobs, including usage of the 'squeue' command and job resource utilization. Removed sections related to managing software modules.
Addresses review feedback on PR #216: documents the jobeff and seff commands for comparing requested vs. actual CPU/memory/GPU usage. Also relabels the last few output blocks that were still fenced as bash instead of plain output, per the earlier "separate commands from output" request.

That content answers a review comment on PR #216, not this PR - it belongs with the other job-monitoring commands (squeue, scontrol) rather than in the module management doc.
Verified on Easley: by default (no --error directive), Slurm merges stdout and stderr into a single slurm-JobID.out file regardless of whether the job actually errors — confirmed with a job that wrote to stderr and exited nonzero, and still got no .err file. A separate .err file only appears if the sbatch script explicitly requests one via --error. Everything else in this doc (squeue variants, scontrol show job, jobeff, seff, watch) was verified working as documented.
