Examining the Status of a Job
Once a job is submitted, you can use the bjobs command to track the job's progress. The bjobs command
reports the status of a job submitted to LSF-HPC. By default, bjobs lists only the user's jobs that have not
finished or exited. The following are examples of using the bjobs command, and shows the output it
produces on an HP XC system. For more information about the bjobs command and its output, refer to the
LSF-HPC manpages.

Example 9-4 Using the bjobs Command (Short Output)
$ bjobs 24
JOBID USER STAT QUEUE FROM_HOST EXEC_HOST JOB_NAME SUBMIT_TIME
24 msmith RUN normal n16 lsfhost.localdomain /bin/bash date and time
As shown in the previous output, the bjobs command returns information that includes the job id, user
name, job status, queue name, submitting host, executing host, job name, and submit time. In this example,
the output shows that job /bin/bash was submitted from node n16 and launched on the execution host
(lsfhost.localdomain).
