Description

19       condor_topdisplays the status (e.g. memory usage and duty cycle)  of  a
20       HTCondor  daemon and calculates and displays runtime statistics for the
21       daemon's subprocesses.
22
23       When no arguments are specified, condor_topdisplays the status for  the
24       primary daemon based on the role of the current machine by scanning the
25       DAEMON_LISTconfiguration setting. If multiple daemons are listed,  con‐
26       dor_topwill  monitor  one  of  (in decreasing priority): condor_schedd,
27       condor_startd, condor_collector, condor_negotiator, condor_master.
28
29       If the condor_collectorreturns multiple ClassAds for the chosen  daemon
30       type,  condor_topwill  display  stats  from the first ClassAd returned.
31       Results can be constrained by passing the NAMEof a specific daemon with
32       -n.
33
34       The  default delayis STATISTICS_WINDOW_QUANTUM, which is 4 minutes (240
35       seconds) in a default HTCondor configuration. Setting the delay smaller
36       can  be  helpful  for finding spikes of activity, but setting the delay
37       too small will lead to poor measurements of the duty cycle and  of  the
38       runtime statistics.
39
40       condor_topcan  run in a top-like &ldquo;live&rdquo; mode by passing -l.
41       The live mode is similar to the *nix top command, with  stats  updating
42       every  delayseconds.  Redirecting stdout will disable live mode even if
43       -lis set. To exit condor_topwhile in live mode, issue Ctrl-C.
44
45       condor_topcan be passed two files containing  ClassAds  from  the  same
46       HTCondor  daemon, in which case the condor_collectorwill not be queried
47       but rather the statistics will be computed  and  displayed  immediately
48       from  the  two ClassAds. Only -c, -s, and &ndash;attrs options are con‐
49       sidered when passing ClassAds via files.
