Track activity of a user
Hi All
We have a job which writes files to a server at a particular time. The files will be created by a particular user ID
Today, during the execution of the job, it created a file to the server and the file sat on the server for sometime, but was deleted immediately at the end of the job(which is few seconds after the file creation).
we are aware that this is caused ONLY by the job, but is there any way I can track the activity during that time like :
1. To see how big was the file
2. when was it created
3. how long was it present, before it was deleted
I assume there will be something written to the Linux server when an action is performed.
Thanks all in advance!!

qrun(8B) PBS qrun(8B)
NAME
qrun - run a pbs batch job
SYNOPSIS
qrun [-a] [-H host] job_identifier ...
DESCRIPTION
The qrun command is used to force a batch server to initiate the execution of a batch job. The job is run regardless of scheduling posi-
tion, resource requirements, or state.
In order to execute qrun, the user must have PBS Operation or Manager privilege.
OPTIONS
-a Specifies the job(s) is to be run asynchronously.
-H host Specifies the host within the cluster on which the job(s) are to be run. The host argument is the name of a host that is a
member of the cluster of hosts managed by the server. If the option is not specified, the server will select the "worst
possible" host on which to execute the job.
OPERANDS
The qrun command accepts one or more job_identifier operands of the form:
sequence_number[.server_name][@server]
STANDARD ERROR
The qrun command will write a diagnostic message to standard error for each error occurrence.
EXIT STATUS
Upon successful processing of all the operands presented to the qrun command, the exit status will be a value of zero.
If the qrun command fails to process any operand, the command exits with a value greater than zero.
