Description Manisha 2024-10-23 03:59:39 MDT 
I am trying to find the GPU hour utilization for a user during a specific time period using the sacct and sreport commands. However, I am noticing a significant difference between the outputs of these two commands.

Could you explain the reasons for this discrepancy? Are there specific factors or configurations in SLURM that could lead to variations in the reported GPU hours?
