I would like to know if a job is using one or two CPUs, based on the interpreation of the following sacct. I have searched documentation about the meaning of the ex+ row but found nothing: how should I interpret that row? 

       JobID      State  Timelimit               Start                 End    Elapsed      NCPUS
------------ ---------- ---------- ------------------- ------------------- ---------- ----------
18948126        RUNNING   10:10:00 2020-04-26T15:59:39             Unknown   00:17:44          1
18948126.ex+    RUNNING            2020-04-26T15:59:39             Unknown   00:17:44          1

The + indicates that the field is truncated because too long to be displayed. The command sacct --format=JobID%30 should show the full JobID (if not, just put a larger number).

The multiple rows correspond to the multiple steps of the job (the first one for the script, then one per task). [.JobStep] indicates the job step. See JobID in the sacct doc as well as this answer.
