Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting how to run script? call other script? su to another user? make a cron? Post 302313991 by instant000 on Thursday 7th of May 2009 07:19:40 AM

Thanks for the assistance from both of you.

As I understand it, the "do while var1 var2 ..."
just assigns variables, while reading through a file, correct? And you can then substitute those variables later.

I saw another example [following your advice of researching more myself] where I see that I can specifically assign the variables.

So, it can be like "u=user1 w=stop1.script v=start1.script"

it was something with grouping, and you could assign all your variables in one line. Something like that. Obviously, I suspect that you understand this a lot better than I do.

Thanks. You've opened my eyes. I hope to begin testing today. Hopefully the admin isn't insecure about his job to not show me how he schedules the cron tasks! ... If I have issues with that, though, I'll try to read more FIRST, so my question will be a bit more knowledgeable, and show more effort on my part, instead of asking for a spoon fed, step-by-step answer.

SSTAT(1)							 Slurm components							  SSTAT(1)

NAME
sstat - Display various status information of a running job/step. SYNOPSIS
sstat [OPTIONS...] DESCRIPTION
Status information for running jobs invoked with SLURM. The sstat command displays job status information for your analysis. The sstat command displays information pertaining to CPU, Task, Node, Resident Set Size (RSS) and Virtual Memory (VM). You can tailor the output with the use of the --fields= option to specify the fields to be shown. For the root user, the sstat command displays job status data for any job running on the system. For the non-root user, the sstat output is limited to the user's jobs. Note: the sstat command requires that the jobacct_gather plugin be installed and operational. -a, --allsteps Print all steps for the given job(s) when no step is specified. -e, --helpformat Print a list of fields that can be specified with the '--format' option. -h, --help Displays a general help message. -i, --pidformat Predefined format to list the pids running for each job step. (JobId,Nodes,Pids) -j, --jobs Format is <job(.step)>. Stat this job step or comma-separated list of job steps. This option is required. The step portion will default to lowest step running if not specified, unless the --allsteps flag is set where not specifying a step will result in all running steps to be displayed. NOTE: A step id of 'batch' will display the information about the batch step. -n, --noheader No heading will be added to the output. The default action is to display a header. -o, --format, --fields Comma separated list of fields. (use '--helpformat' for a list of available fields). NOTE: When using the format option for listing various fields you can put a %NUMBER afterwards to specify how many characters should be printed. i.e. format=name%30 will print 30 characters of field name right justified. A -30 will print 30 characters left justified. -p, --parsable output will be '|' delimited with a '|' at the end -P, --parsable2 output will be '|' delimited without a '|' at the end --usage Display a command usage summary. -v, --verbose Primarily for debugging purposes, report the state of various variables during processing. -V, --version Print version. Job Status Fields The following are the field options: AveCPU Average (system + user) CPU time of all tasks in job. AvePages Average number of page faults of all tasks in job. AveRSS Average resident set size of all tasks in job. AveVMSize Average Virtual Memory size of all tasks in job. JobID The number of the job or job step. It is in the form: job.jobstep. MaxPages Maximum number of page faults of all tasks in job. MaxPagesNode The node on which the maxpages occurred. MaxPagesTask The task ID where the maxpages occurred. MaxRSS Maximum resident set size of all tasks in job. MaxRSSNode The node on which the maxrss occurred. MaxRSSTask The task ID where the maxrss occurred. MaxVMSize Maximum Virtual Memory size of all tasks in job. MaxVMSizeNode The node on which the maxvsize occurred. MaxVMSizeTask The task ID where the maxvsize occurred. MinCPU Minimum (system + user) CPU time of all tasks in job. MinCPUNode The node on which the mincpu occurred. MinCPUTask The task ID where the mincpu occurred. NTasks Total number of tasks in a job or step. EXAMPLES
