I have searched google and read the documentation.

My local cluster is using SLURM. I want to check the following things: How many cores does each node have? How many cores has each job in the queue reserved?

Any advice would be much appreciated!

in order to see the details of all the nodes you can use:

scontrol show node

For an specific node:

scontrol show node "nodename"

And for the cores of job you can use the format mark %C, for instance:

squeue -o"%.7i %.9P %.8j %.8u %.2t %.10M %.6D %C"

More info about format.
