Both of the mentioned nodes show alloc on shared-gpu but when I try squeue -w gpu032 no jobs appear.
Are they taken by private partition jobs? If so, would it be possible to know how long those jobs have remaining to run? I need an 80GB memory gpu and if they are unavailable for several days I will need to find another solution.
Ok it seems they are indeed occupied on private allocations. I didn’t realize sinfo --all would show even private partitions.
You can find more information by running these commands :
(baobab)-[alberta@admin1 ~]$ sinfo -n gpu[032-033]

Be careful, the node’s status can change very quickly. One second it may appear idle, and the next it’s allocated.
Best regards 
For others who might hit the same issue, I created a modified version of squeue which by default will show some extended formatting options that help figure out what’s going to be on a node for how long:
alias sqlong="squeue --all --Format=UserName:12,Partition:16,NumCPUs:6,TimeLimit:11,TimeUsed:10,StateCompact:3,Reason:15,NodeList"
which, for an example with gpu029, produces:
gercek@login2:~$ sq -w gpu029

Edit: forgot to note that you should save this in your ~/.bashrc if you’d like it to be available every login.
