NAME

       GRAM Job States -

   Enumerations
       enum globus_gram_protocol_job_state_t { GLOBUS_GRAM_PROTOCOL_JOB_STATE_PENDING = 1, GLOBUS_GRAM_PROTOCOL_JOB_STATE_ACTIVE = 2,
	   GLOBUS_GRAM_PROTOCOL_JOB_STATE_FAILED = 4, GLOBUS_GRAM_PROTOCOL_JOB_STATE_DONE = 8, GLOBUS_GRAM_PROTOCOL_JOB_STATE_SUSPENDED = 16,
	   GLOBUS_GRAM_PROTOCOL_JOB_STATE_UNSUBMITTED = 32, GLOBUS_GRAM_PROTOCOL_JOB_STATE_STAGE_IN = 64, GLOBUS_GRAM_PROTOCOL_JOB_STATE_STAGE_OUT
	   = 128, GLOBUS_GRAM_PROTOCOL_JOB_STATE_ALL = 0xFFFFF }

Detailed Description
       The globus_gram_protocol_job_state_t contains information about the current state of the job as known by the job manager.

       Job state changes are sent by the Job Manager to all registered clients. A client may ask for information from the job manager via the
       status request.

Enumeration Type Documentation
   enum globus_gram_protocol_job_state_t
       GRAM Job States.

       Enumerator:

       GLOBUS_GRAM_PROTOCOL_JOB_STATE_PENDING
	      The job is waiting for resources to become available to run.

       GLOBUS_GRAM_PROTOCOL_JOB_STATE_ACTIVE
	      The job has received resources and the application is executing.

       GLOBUS_GRAM_PROTOCOL_JOB_STATE_FAILED

	      reason.

       GLOBUS_GRAM_PROTOCOL_JOB_STATE_UNSUBMITTED
	      The job has not been submitted to the scheduler yet, pending the reception of the GLOBUS_GRAM_PROTOCOL_JOB_SIGNAL_COMMIT_REQUEST
	      signal from a client.

       GLOBUS_GRAM_PROTOCOL_JOB_STATE_STAGE_IN
	      The job manager is staging in files to run the job.

       GLOBUS_GRAM_PROTOCOL_JOB_STATE_STAGE_OUT
	      The job manager is staging out files generated by the job.
