Ticket 7770

We'd like to see some improvements to the output of commands such as sinfo so that node state short names are more obvious without having to reference special character to substate meanings. E.g.

> sinfo
PARTITION AVAIL TIMELIMIT NODES STATE   NODELIST
batch     up     infinite     2 alloc   adev[8-9]
batch     up     infinite     5 idle*   adev[10-14]
batch     up     infinite     1 idle#   adev[15]


> sinfo
PARTITION AVAIL TIMELIMIT NODES STATE             NODELIST
batch     up     infinite     2 alloc             adev[8-9]
batch     up     infinite     5 idle_noresponse   adev[10-14]
batch     up     infinite     1 idle_rebooting    adev[15]

There is most likely a better way to present this, but I wanted to just show an example of how this would be more easily presented to users and admins. Another possibility is to add an additional column.

> sinfo
PARTITION AVAIL TIMELIMIT NODES STATE    SUBSTATE         NODELIST
batch     up     infinite     2 alloc    running          adev[8-9]
batch     up     infinite     5 idle     noresponse       adev[10-14]
batch     up     infinite     1 idle     rebooting        adev[15]
batch     up     infinite     1 idle     preallocated     adev[16]

Thanks,

Paul
