Re: [HTCondor-users] condor_q -idle ?

[Stub <spamrefuse@xxxxxxxxx>]

I considered it a "missing flag", because I need the number of idle jobs in the queue.......thanks, your solution works for now.

As for a different output format with the -idle flag:
show "how often the job has been evicted so far", comes to mind.

condor_q -constraint "JobStatus==1"

will show only idle jobs.

condor_q -hold and condor_q -run  do more than just count jobs in a 
particular state,
they also show different information about the job than the default 
condor_q output does.

What different headings would you want for idle jobs?
