Re: [HTCondor-users] Condor Watch Queue Announcement

Hi, David.

 

condor_watch_q from 8.9 can be used to watch jobs in an 8.8 Schedd, but it relies on

fairly extensive changes to the HTCondor helper libraries, so there isnât much chance

the tool itself will ever be back-ported to 8.8.

Hi,

Is there a chance that condor_watch_q will be backported to the 8.8 branch?

I'm in the process of migrating from torque to HTCondor and I'm missing a tool like that to get overall status of system load.

Today I'm using an homemade script that displays other the number of jobs, also how many cores and memory are requested by the jobs:

 

Total of 3310 Jobs Running on 3905 Cores, Using 3182GB of RAM Memory

USER        STATUS      QUEUE        JOBS        CORES      MEM(GB)

Hello all,

 

In HTCondor 8.9.8 we released a new tool, condor_watch_q, a live-updating job status tracker that does not repeatedly query the condor_schedd like "watch condor_q" would. condor_watch_q comes bundled with HTCondor itself, and it includes options for colored output, progress bars, and a minimal language for exiting when certain conditions are met. For full details, see the manual page. This tool is very new, and we would appreciate your testing and feedback on it.

 

Here are some screenshots of condor_watch_q in action, showing a few of the different display options:

 

 

 

Some more example usages:

 

$ condor_watch_q -h  #  print help message

$ condor_watch_q -users tannenba  # track user tannenba's jobs

$ condor_watch_q -clusters 1234 5678  # track jobs from clusters 1234 and 5678

$ condor_watch_q -users tannenba -clusters 1234 -groupby cluster  # track jobs that belong to tannenba or are in cluster 1234, and group rows by cluster ID

 

Eric Lin will be in charge of this project, for any feedback or inquiries feel free to contact: zlin245@xxxxxxxx

 

Thank you!
