QSTAT(1P) POSIX Programmer's Manual QSTAT(1P)
This manual page is part of the POSIX Programmer's Manual. The Linux
implementation of this interface may differ (consult the
corresponding Linux manual page for details of Linux behavior), or
the interface may not be implemented on Linux.
qstat — show status of batch jobs
qstat [−f] job_identifier...
qstat −Q [−f] destination...
qstat −B [−f] server_name...
The status of a batch job, batch queue, or batch server is obtained
by a request to the server. The qstat utility is a user-accessible
batch client that requests the status of one or more batch jobs,
batch queues, or servers, and writes the status information to
standard output.
For each successfully processed batch job_identifier, the qstat
utility shall display information about the corresponding batch job.
For each successfully processed destination, the qstat utility shall
display information about the corresponding batch queue.
For each successfully processed server name, the qstat utility shall
display information about the corresponding server.
The qstat utility shall acquire batch job status information by
sending a Job Status Request to a batch server. The qstat utility
shall acquire batch queue status information by sending a Queue
Status Request to a batch server. The qstat utility shall acquire
server status information by sending a Server Status Request to a
batch server.
The qstat utility shall conform to the Base Definitions volume of
POSIX.1‐2008, Section 12.2, Utility Syntax Guidelines.
The following options shall be supported by the implementation:
−f Specify that a full display is produced.
The minimum contents of a full display are specified in the
STDOUT section.
Additional contents and format of a full display are
implementation-defined.
−Q Specify that the operand is a destination.
The qstat utility shall display information about each
batch queue at each destination identified as an operand.
−B Specify that the operand is a server name.
The qstat utility shall display information about each
server identified as an operand.
If the −Q option is presented to the qstat utility, the utility shall
accept one or more operands that conform to the syntax for a
destination (see Section 3.3.2, Destination).
If the −B option is presented to the qstat utility, the utility shall
accept one or more server_name operands.
If neither the −B nor the −Q option is presented to the qstat
utility, the utility shall accept one or more operands that conform
to the syntax for a batch job_identifier (see Section 3.3.1, Batch
Job Identifier).
Not used.
None.
The following environment variables shall affect the execution of
qstat:
HOME Determine the pathname of the user's home directory.
LANG Provide a default value for the internationalization
variables that are unset or null. (See the Base Definitions
volume of POSIX.1‐2008, Section 8.2, Internationalization
Variables the precedence of internationalization variables
used to determine the values of locale categories.)
LC_ALL If set to a non-empty string value, override the values of
all the other internationalization variables.
LC_COLLATE
Determine the locale for the behavior of ranges,
equivalence classes, and multi-character collating elements
within regular expressions.
LC_CTYPE Determine the locale for the interpretation of sequences of
bytes of text data as characters (for example, single-byte
as opposed to multi-byte characters in arguments).
LC_MESSAGES
Determine the locale that should be used to affect the
format and contents of diagnostic messages written to
standard error.
LC_NUMERIC
Determine the locale for selecting the radix character used
when writing floating-point formatted output.
Default.
If an operand presented to the qstat utility is a batch
job_identifier and the −f option is not specified, the qstat utility
shall display the following items on a single line, in the stated
order, with white space between each item, for each successfully
processed operand:
* The batch job_identifier
* The batch job name
* The Job_Owner attribute
* The CPU time used by the batch job
* The batch job state
* The batch job location
If an operand presented to the qstat utility is a batch
job_identifier and the −f option is specified, the qstat utility
shall display the following items for each success fully processed
operand:
* The batch job_identifier
* The batch job name
* The Job_Owner attribute
* The execution user ID
* The CPU time used by the batch job
* The batch job state
* The batch job location
* Additional implementation-defined information, if any, about the
batch job or batch queue
If an operand presented to the qstat utility is a destination, the −Q
option is specified, and the −f option is not specified, the qstat
utility shall display the following items on a single line, in the
stated order, with white space between each item, for each
successfully processed operand:
* The batch queue name
* The maximum number of batch jobs that shall be run in the batch
queue concurrently
* The total number of batch jobs in the batch queue
* The status of the batch queue
* For each state, the number of batch jobs in that state in the
batch queue and the name of the state
* The type of batch queue (execution or routing)
If the operands presented to the qstat utility are destinations, the
−Q option is specified, and the −f option is specified, the qstat
utility shall display the following items for each successfully
processed operand:
* The batch queue name
* The maximum number of batch jobs that shall be run in the batch
queue concurrently
* The total number of batch jobs in the batch queue
* The status of the batch queue
* For each state, the number of batch jobs in that state in the
batch queue and the name of the state
* The type of batch queue (execution or routing)
* Additional implementation-defined information, if any, about the
batch queue
If the operands presented to the qstat utility are batch server
names, the −B option is specified, and the −f option is not
specified, the qstat utility shall display the following items on a
single line, in the stated order, with white space between each item,
for each successfully processed operand:
* The batch server name
* The maximum number of batch jobs that shall be run in the batch
queue concurrently
* The total number of batch jobs managed by the batch server
* The status of the batch server
* For each state, the number of batch jobs in that state and the
name of the state
If the operands presented to the qstat utility are server names, the
−B option is specified, and the −f option is specified, the qstat
utility shall display the following items for each successfully
processed operand:
* The server name
* The maximum number of batch jobs that shall be run in the batch
queue concurrently
* The total number of batch jobs managed by the server
* The status of the server
* For each state, the number of batch jobs in that state and the
name of the state
* Additional implementation-defined information, if any, about the
server
The standard error shall be used only for diagnostic messages.
None.
None.
The following exit values shall be returned:
0 Successful completion.
>0 An error occurred.
In addition to the default behavior, the qstat utility shall not be
required to write a diagnostic message to standard error when the
error reply received from a batch server indicates that the batch
job_identifier does not exist on the server. Whether or not the qstat
utility waits to output the diagnostic message while attempting to
locate the batch job on other servers is implementation-defined.
The following sections are informative.
None.
None.
The qstat utility allows users to display the status of jobs and list
the batch jobs in queues.
The operands of the qstat utility may be either job identifiers,
queues (specified as destination identifiers), or batch server names.
The −Q and −B options, or absence thereof, indicate the nature of the
operands.
The other options of the qstat utility allow the user to control the
amount of information displayed and the format in which it is
displayed. Should a user wish to display the status of a set of jobs
that match a selection criteria, the qselect utility may be used to
acquire such a list.
The −f option allows users to request a ``full'' display in an
implementation-defined format.
Historically, the qstat utility has been a part of the NQS and its
derivatives, the existing practice on which it is based.
The qstat utility may be removed in a future version.
