STANDARD OUTPUT
Displaying Job Status
If the -a, -i, -f, -r, -u, -n, -G, and -M options are not specified, the brief single-line display format is used. The following items are
displayed on a single line, in the specified order, separated by white space:
the job id
the job name
the job owner
the cpu time used
the job state
C - Job is completed after having run E - Job is exiting after having run. H - Job is held. Q - job is queued, eligible to run or
routed. R - job is running. T - job is being moved to new location. W - job is waiting for its execution time (-a option) to be
reached. S - job is suspended.
the queue that the job is in
If the -f option is specified, the multi-line display format is used. The output for each job consists of the header line: Job Id: job
identifier followed by one line per job attribute of the form: attribute_name = value
If any of the options -a, -i, -r, -u, -n, -G or -M are specified, the normal single-line display format is used. The following items are
displayed on a single line, in the specified order, separated by white space:
the job id
the job owner
the queue the job is in
the job name
the session id (if the job is running)
the number of nodes requested by the job
the number of cpus or tasks requested by the job
the amount of memory requested by the job
either the cpu time, if specified, or wall time requested by the job, (in hh:mm)
the job state
The amount of cpu time or wall time used by the job (in hh:mm)
