EXTENDED DESCRIPTION
The arcstat command gives the status of a job submitted an 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. If the --long option is given more
detailed information is given.
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
FILES
- ~/.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.
ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
- 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).
