slurmwatch is installed as a module on Midway3 (module load slurmwatch) and shows live per-process CPU / memory / GPU usage of a running job. - slurm/sbatch.md: lead "Monitoring running jobs" with slurmwatch (module load + usage), keeping the SSH + htop method as an alternative. - slurm/sinteractive.md: add "Monitoring an interactive session" with the tmux-second-pane-on-the-node pattern.

Adds
slurmwatchto the job-monitoring documentation. It is installed as a module on Midway3 (module load slurmwatch→slurmwatch/0.8.2(default)under/software/modulefiles) and shows live per-process CPU / memory / GPU usage of a running job as a terminal dashboard.Changes
slurm/sbatch.md→ "Monitoring running jobs": lead withslurmwatch(module load+ basic usage, and why it complementshtop— it isolates your job's own processes, reports GPU utilization/VRAM, and hops to the compute node automatically), keeping the existing SSH +htopmethod as the alternative.slurm/sinteractive.md: new "Monitoring an interactive session" subsection with the recommended pattern — run it in a secondtmuxpane on the compute node so it watches your work without creating a contending Slurm step.The two pages cross-link; no nav change.
