How to Monitor Jobs

Once jobs have been submitted to the cluster, monitoring can be performed using the following command in a terminal

[username@computer ~]$ condor_q -submitter <username>| less

This will display

  • the process ID
  • the owner of the job
  • the date and time it was submitted
  • how long it has been running
  • its current status (run, held, idle)
  • the job size
  • program name

This is useful to monitor your own jobs to check on their status.

Another useful command is condor_status which can tell you information about the cluster machines

[username@computer ~]$ condor_status [-r] | less

This will show a list of the various machine resources and if the option -r is supplied it will only show machines with running jobs.

If there are any concerns about a specific job, please contact the main administrator.
