Hi,

Have you tried the ElasticSearch job completion plugin? With Kibana you can
have nice charts for reporting and easily query the database to retrieve
the information required. It does not support importing old jobs, but as
soon as you set it up, you can start getting nice dashboards with kibana.
You can get more info in this presentation
http://www.hpckp.org/images/training/slurm15/10-new_jobcomp_plugin_for_elasticsearch.pdf
or in the github repo of the plugin (already integrated in the slurm 15.x
version) https://github.com/asanchez1987/jobcomp-elasticsearch

Cheers,
Carlos
