arcstat - ARC Status
The
arcstat command is used for obtaining the status of jobs that have
been submitted to grid enabled resources.
arcstat [options] [job ...]
-
-a, --all
- all jobs

~/.arc/jobs.xml)
-
-i, --jobids-from-file=filename
- a file containing a list of jobIDs
-
-c, --cluster=name

an alias for a single CE, a group of CEs or a URL
-
-r, --rejectmanagement=URL
- skip jobs which are on a computing element with a given
URL
-
-s, --status=statusstr
- only select jobs whose status is statusstr
-
-l, --long
- long format (more information)
-
-J, --json
- output information about jobs in JSON format
-
-S, --sort
- sort jobs according to jobid, submissiontime or
jobname
-
-R, --rsort
- reverse sorting of jobs according to jobid, submissiontime
or jobname
-
-u, --show-unavailable
- show jobs where status information is unavailable
-
-p, --print-jobids
- instead of the status only the IDs of the selected jobs
will be printed
-
-P, --listplugins
- list the available plugins
-
-t, --timeout=seconds
- timeout in seconds (default 20)
-
-z, --conffile=filename
- configuration file (default ~/.arc/client.conf)
-
-d, --debug=debuglevel
- FATAL, ERROR, WARNING, INFO, VERBOSE or DEBUG
-
-v, --version

-
-?, --help

-
job ...
- list of jobids and/or jobnames
The
arcstat command gives the status of a job submitted to a ARC enabled
resource. The job can be referred to either by the jobid that was returned by
arcsub(1) at submission time or by its jobname if the job description
that was submitted contained a jobname attribute.
More than one jobid and/or jobname can be given. If several jobs were submitted
with the same jobname the status of all those jobs are shown. If the
--joblist option is used the list of jobs is read from a file with the
specified filename. By specifying the
--all option, the status of all
active jobs will be shown.
By default
arcstat presents job states as defined internally followed by
middleware specific representation of job state in brackets. The following
internal job states are defined:
Accepted - job accepted on cluster but not being processed yet
Preparing - job is in phase of preparing for submission to batch system
Submitting - communication with batch system in ongoing
Hold - job's processing is suspended dueto internal reason or user
request
Queuing - job is passed to batch system but not being executed yet
Running - job being execcuted in batch system
Finishing - job in phase of post-execution procedures being run
Finished - job successfully completed all processing phases
Killed - job processing was interrupted by user request
Failed - job processing was interrupted due to detected failure
Deleted - job was removed from cluster (usually because it stayed there
too long)
Other - middleware specific job state could not be adequately mappped to
internal state
Those are also states which are used by
arccat(1),
arcclean(1),
arcget(1),
arckill(1),
arcrenew(1),
arcresub(1),
arcresume(1) to perform job filtering.
If the
--long option is given more detailed information is shown.
Jobs can be sorted according to the jobid, submissiontime or jobname, either in
normal or reverse order. By using the
--sort or
--rsort option
followed by the desired ordering ('jobid', 'submissiontime' or 'jobname'),
jobs will be sorted in normal or reverse order. Note that the options
--sort and
--rsort cannot be used at the same time.
The
--cluster option can be used to select or reject jobs at specific
clusters. See
arcsub(1) for a discussion of the format of arguments to
this option. The
--status option can be used to select jobs in a
specific state. These options can be repeated several times.
The
arcstat command locates the available clusters by querying
information index servers. Which servers to query can be specified by giving
the
--index option to the command. See
arcsub(1) for a
discussion of the format of arguments to this option.
Also in this case the
--long option can be used to obtain more detailed
information.
Previously the
arcstat command was also used to query information of
clusters and/or index servers. This functionality have been moved to the new
command
arcinfo
- ~/.arc/client.conf
- Some options can be given default values by specifying them
in the ARC client configuration file. By using the --conffile
option a different configuration file can be used than the default.
- ~/.arc/jobs.xml
- This a local list of the user's active jobs. When a job is
successfully submitted it is added to this list and when it is removed
from the remote cluster it is removed from this list. This list is used as
the list of all active jobs when the user specifies the --all
option to the various NorduGrid ARC user interface commands. By using the
--joblist option a different file can be used than the default.
- X509_USER_PROXY
- The location of the user's Grid proxy file. Shouldn't be
set unless the proxy is in a non-standard location.
- ARC_LOCATION
- The location where ARC is installed can be specified by
this variable. If not specified the install location will be determined
from the path to the command being executed, and if this fails a WARNING
will be given stating the location which will be used.
- ARC_PLUGIN_PATH
- The location of ARC plugins can be specified by this
variable. Multiple locations can be specified by separating them by : (;
in Windows). The default location is $ARC_LOCATION/lib/arc (\ in
Windows).
