Command Options

This table provides information about each of the command options for monitoring
batches.

Description

Monitoring command option

Use to specify the name of the cluster to which the job was sent.

-clustername

User password for the cluster specified by ID or name.

-password

Optionally, you can use

-clusterid

to enter the cluster ID and

port number instead of using

-clustername

.

Or, if you used

-clustername

and the cluster requires a password,

use

-clusterid

to specify the user name and password. (You

need to include the

IP address:port number

as well whenever

you use

-clusterid

.)

Use

Apple Qmaster -show

or

Compressor -show

to see a

cluster’s IP address and port number.

-clusterid

name:password@IP

address:port number>

Use to specify the job you want to monitor.

When you use the

-jobid

option, you must also specify the

-batchid

, in the form of the name that was given to the batch

when it was submitted. (The

-batchid

and

-jobid

are displayed

after a batch is submitted.)

If you do not use the

-jobid

option, all the jobs submitted to the

specified cluster are listed.

-jobid

-batchid

Use to specify the number of seconds before Batch Monitor can
quit when looking for a cluster. The default value is 0, which puts
no limit on the timeout and allows Batch Monitor to browse the
network for as long as it needs to find the cluster.

-timeout

Use to specify how frequently, in seconds, the job status should be
updated.

-query

Cancels the specified job or batch.

-kill -jobid

-batchid

Displays information about supported options for

Batch Monitor

.
