14
16 condor_status is a versatile tool that may be used to monitor and query
17 the HTCondor pool. The condor_status tool can be used to query resource
18 information, submitter information, checkpoint server information, and
19 daemon master information. The specific query sent and the resulting
20 information display is controlled by the query options supplied.
21 Queries and display formats can also be customized.
22 The options that may be supplied to condor_status belong to five
24 groups:
25 · Help options provide information about the condor_status tool.
27 · Query options control the content and presentation of status informa‐
29 tion.
30 · Display options control the display of the queried information.
32 · Custom options allow the user to customize query and display informa‐
34 tion.
35 · Host options specify specific machines to be queried
37 At any time, only one help option, one query option and one display
39 option may be specified. Any number of custom options and host options
40 may be specified.
41
43 -debug Causes debugging information to be sent to stderr, based on
44 the value of the configuration variable TOOL_DEBUG.
45 -help (Help option) Display usage information.
47 -diagnose
49 (Help option) Print out ClassAd query without performing the
50 query.
51 -absent
53 (Query option) Query for and display only absent resources.
54 -ads filename
56 (Query option) Read the set of ClassAds in the file specified
57 by filename, instead of querying the condor_collector.
58 -annex name
60 (Query option) Query for and display only resources in the
61 named annex.
62 -any (Query option) Query all ClassAds and display their type,
64 target type, and name.
65 -avail (Query option) Query condor_startd ClassAds and identify
67 resources which are available.
68 -ckptsrvr
70 (Query option) Query condor_ckpt_server ClassAds and display
71 checkpoint server attributes.
72 -claimed
74 (Query option) Query condor_startd ClassAds and print infor‐
75 mation about claimed resources.
76 -cod (Query option) Display only machine ClassAds that have COD
78 claims. Information displayed includes the claim ID, the
79 owner of the claim, and the state of the COD claim.
80 -collector
82 (Query option) Query condor_collector ClassAds and display
83 attributes.
84 -defrag
86 (Query option) Query condor_defrag ClassAds.
87 -direct hostname
89 (Query option) Go directly to the given host name to get the
90 ClassAds to display. By default, returns the condor_startd
91 ClassAd. If -schedd is also given, return the condor_schedd
92 ClassAd on that host.
93 -java (Query option) Display only Java-capable resources.
95 -license
97 (Query option) Display license attributes.
98 -master
100 (Query option) Query condor_master ClassAds and display dae‐
101 mon master attributes.
102 -negotiator
104 (Query option) Query condor_negotiator ClassAds and display
105 attributes.
106 -pool centralmanagerhostname[:portnumber]
108 (Query option) Query the specified central manager using an
109 optional port number. condor_status queries the machine spec‐
110 ified by the configuration variable COLLECTOR_HOST by
111 default.
112 -run (Query option) Display information about machines currently
114 running jobs.
115 -schedd
117 (Query option) Query condor_schedd ClassAds and display
118 attributes.
119 -server
121 (Query option) Query condor_startd ClassAds and display
122 resource attributes.
123 -startd
125 (Query option) Query condor_startd ClassAds.
126 -state (Query option) Query condor_startd ClassAds and display
128 resource state information.
129 -statistics WhichStatistics
131 (Query option) Can only be used if the -direct option has
132 been specified. Identifies which Statistics attributes to
133 include in the ClassAd. WhichStatistics is specified using
134 the same syntax as defined for STATISTICS_TO_PUBLISH. A defi‐
135 nition is in the HTCondor Administrator's manual section on
136 configuration (admin-manual/configuration-macros:htcon‐
137 dor-wide configuration file entries).
138 -storage
140 (Query option) Display attributes of machines with network
141 storage resources.
142 -submitters
144 (Query option) Query ClassAds sent by submitters and display
145 important submitter attributes.
146 -subsystem type
148 (Query option) If type is one of collector, negotiator, mas‐
149 ter, schedd, or startd, then behavior is the same as the
150 query option without the -subsystem option. For example,
151 -subsystem collector is the same as -collector. A value of
152 type of CkptServer, Machine, DaemonMaster, or Scheduler tar‐
153 gets that type of ClassAd.
154 -vm (Query option) Query condor_startd ClassAds, and display only
156 VM-enabled machines. Information displayed includes the
157 machine name, the virtual machine software version, the state
158 of machine, the virtual machine memory, and the type of net‐
159 working.
160 -offline
162 (Query option) Query condor_startd ClassAds, and display, for
163 each machine with at least one offline universe, which uni‐
164 verses are offline for it.
165 -attributes Attr1[,Attr2 ...]
167 (Display option) Explicitly list the attributes in a comma
168 separated list which should be displayed when using the -xml,
169 -json or -long options. Limiting the number of attributes
170 increases the efficiency of the query.
171 -expert
173 (Display option) Display shortened error messages.
174 -long (Display option) Display entire ClassAds. Implies that totals
176 will not be displayed.
177 -limit num
179 (Query option) At most num results should be displayed.
180 -sort expr
182 (Display option) Change the display order to be based on
183 ascending values of an evaluated expression given by expr.
184 Evaluated expressions of a string type are in a case insensi‐
185 tive alphabetical order. If multiple -sort arguments appear
186 on the command line, the primary sort will be on the leftmost
187 one within the command line, and it is numbered 0. A sec‐
188 ondary sort will be based on the second expression, and it is
189 numbered 1. For informational or debugging purposes, the
190 ClassAd output to be displayed will appear as if the ClassAd
191 had two additional attributes. CondorStatusSortKeyExpr<N> is
192 the expression, where <N> is replaced by the number of the
193 sort. CondorStatusSortKey<N> gives the result of evaluating
194 the sort expression that is numbered <N>.
195 -total (Display option) Display totals only.
197 -xml (Display option) Display entire ClassAds, in XML format. The
199 XML format is fully defined in the reference manual, obtained
200 from the ClassAds web page, with a link at
201 http://htcondor.org/classad/classad.html.
202 -json (Display option) Display entire ClassAds in JSON format.
204 -constraint const
206 (Custom option) Add constraint expression.
207 -compact
209 (Custom option) Show compact form, rolling up slots into a
210 single line.
211 -format fmt attr
213 (Custom option) Display attribute or expression attr in for‐
214 mat fmt. To display the attribute or expression the format
215 must contain a single printf(3)-style conversion specifier.
216 Attributes must be from the resource ClassAd. Expressions are
217 ClassAd expressions and may refer to attributes in the
218 resource ClassAd. If the attribute is not present in a given
219 ClassAd and cannot be parsed as an expression, then the for‐
220 mat option will be silently skipped. %r prints the unevalu‐
221 ated, or raw values. The conversion specifier must match the
222 type of the attribute or expression. %s is suitable for
223 strings such as Name, %d for integers such as LastHeardFrom,
224 and %f for floating point numbers such as LoadAvg. %v identi‐
225 fies the type of the attribute, and then prints the value in
226 an appropriate format. %V identifies the type of the
227 attribute, and then prints the value in an appropriate format
228 as it would appear in the -long format. As an example,
229 strings used with %V will have quote marks. An incorrect for‐
230 mat will result in undefined behavior. Do not use more than
231 one conversion specifier in a given format. More than one
232 conversion specifier will result in undefined behavior. To
233 output multiple attributes repeat the -format option once for
234 each desired attribute. Like printf(3)-style formats, one may
235 include other text that will be reproduced directly. A format
236 without any conversion specifiers may be specified, but an
237 attribute is still required. Include a backslash followed by
238 an 'n' to specify a line break.
239 -autoformat[:lhVr,tng] attr1 [attr2 ...] or -af[:lhVr,tng] attr1
241 [attr2 ...]
242 (Output option) Display attribute(s) or expression(s) format‐
243 ted in a default way according to attribute types. This
244 option takes an arbitrary number of attribute names as argu‐
245 ments, and prints out their values, with a space between each
246 value and a newline character after the last value. It is
247 like the -format option without format strings. This output
248 option does not work in conjunction with the -run option.
249 It is assumed that no attribute names begin with a dash char‐
251 acter, so that the next word that begins with dash is the
252 start of the next option. The autoformat option may be fol‐
253 lowed by a colon character and formatting qualifiers to devi‐
254 ate the output formatting from the default:
255 l label each field,
257 h print column headings before the first line of output,
259 V use %V rather than %v for formatting (string values are
261 quoted),
262 r print "raw", or unevaluated values,
264 , add a comma character after each field,
266 t add a tab character before each field instead of the
268 default space character,
269 n add a newline character after each field,
271 g add a newline character between ClassAds, and suppress spa‐
273 ces before each field.
274 Use -af:h to get tabular values with headings.
276 Use -af:lrng to get -long equivalent format.
278 The newline and comma characters may not be used together.
280 The l and h characters may not be used together.
281 -target filename
283 (Custom option) Where evaluation requires a target ClassAd to
284 evaluate against, file filename contains the target ClassAd.
285 -merge filename
287 (Custom option) Ads will be read from filename, which may be
288 - to indicate standard in, and compared to the ads selected
289 by the query specified by the remainder of the command line.
290 Ads will be considered the same if their sort keys match;
291 sort keys may be specified with [-sort <key>]. This option
292 will cause up to three tables to print, in the following
293 order, depending on where a given ad appeared: first, the ads
294 which appeared in the query but not in filename; second, the
295 ads which appeared in both the query and in filename; third,
296 the ads which appeared in filename but not in the query.
297 By default, banners will label each table. If -xml is also
299 given, the same banners will separate three valid XML docu‐
300 ments, one for each table. If -json is also given, a single
301 JSON object will be produced, with the usual JSON output for
302 each table labeled as an element in the object.
303 The -annex option changes this default so that the banners
305 are not printed and the tables are formatted differently. In
306 this case, the ads in filename are expected to have different
307 contents from the ads in the query, so many others will
308 behave strangely.
309
311 · The default output from condor_status is formatted to be human read‐
312 able, not script readable. In an effort to make the output fit within
313 80 characters, values in some fields might be truncated. Further‐
314 more, the HTCondor Project can (and does) change the formatting of
315 this default output as we see fit. Therefore, any script that is
316 attempting to parse data from condor_status is strongly encouraged to
317 use the -format option (described above).
318 · The information obtained from condor_startd and condor_schedd daemons
320 may sometimes appear to be inconsistent. This is normal since con‐
321 dor_startd and condor_schedd daemons update the HTCondor manager at
322 different rates, and since there is a delay as information propagates
323 through the network and the system.
324 · Note that the ActivityTime in the Idle state is not the amount of
326 time that the machine has been idle. See the section on condor_startd
327 states in the Administrator's Manual for more information
328 (/admin-manual/installation-startup-shutdown-reconfiguration).
329 · When using condor_status on a pool with SMP machines, you can either
331 provide the host name, in which case you will get back information
332 about all slots that are represented on that host, or you can list
333 specific slots by name. See the examples below for details.
334 · If you specify host names, without domains, HTCondor will automati‐
336 cally try to resolve those host names into fully qualified host names
337 for you. This also works when specifying specific nodes of an SMP
338 machine. In this case, everything after the "@" sign is treated as a
339 host name and that is what is resolved.
340 · You can use the -direct option in conjunction with almost any other
342 set of options. However, at this time, the only daemon that will
343 allow direct queries for its ad(s) is the condor_startd. So, the only
344 options currently not supported with -direct are -schedd and -master.
345 Most other options use startd ads for their information, so they work
346 seamlessly with -direct. The only other restriction on -direct is
347 that you may only use 1 -direct option at a time. If you want to
348 query information directly from multiple hosts, you must run con‐
349 dor_status multiple times.
350 · Unless you use the local host name with -direct, condor_status will
352 still have to contact a collector to find the address where the spec‐
353 ified daemon is listening. So, using a -pool option in conjunction
354 with -direct just tells condor_status which collector to query to
355 find the address of the daemon you want. The information actually
356 displayed will still be retrieved directly from the daemon you speci‐
357 fied as the argument to -direct.
358
360 Example 1 To view information from all nodes of an SMP machine, use
361 only the host name. For example, if you had a 4-CPU machine, named vul‐
362 ture.cs.wisc.edu, you might see
363 % condor_status vulture
365 Name OpSys Arch State Activity LoadAv Mem ActvtyTime
367 slot1@vulture.cs.w LINUX INTEL Claimed Busy 1.050 512 0+01:47:42
369 slot2@vulture.cs.w LINUX INTEL Claimed Busy 1.000 512 0+01:48:19
370 slot3@vulture.cs.w LINUX INTEL Unclaimed Idle 0.070 512 1+11:05:32
371 slot4@vulture.cs.w LINUX INTEL Unclaimed Idle 0.000 512 1+11:05:34
372 Total Owner Claimed Unclaimed Matched Preempting Backfill
374 INTEL/LINUX 4 0 2 2 0 0 0
376 Total 4 0 2 2 0 0 0
378 Example 2 To view information from a specific nodes of an SMP machine,
380 specify the node directly. You do this by providing the name of the
381 slot. This has the form slot#@hostname. For example:
382 % condor_status slot3@vulture
384 Name OpSys Arch State Activity LoadAv Mem ActvtyTime
386 slot3@vulture.cs.w LINUX INTEL Unclaimed Idle 0.070 512 1+11:10:32
388 Total Owner Claimed Unclaimed Matched Preempting Backfill
390 INTEL/LINUX 1 0 0 1 0 0 0
392 Total 1 0 0 1 0 0 0
394 Constraint option examples
396 The Unix command to use the constraint option to see all machines with
398 the OpSys of "LINUX":
399 % condor_status -constraint OpSys==\"LINUX\"
401 Note that quotation marks must be escaped with the backslash characters
403 for most shells.
404 The Windows command to do the same thing:
406 >condor_status -constraint " OpSys==""LINUX"" "
408 Note that quotation marks are used to delimit the single argument which
410 is the expression, and the quotation marks that identify the string
411 must be escaped by using a set of two double quote marks without any
412 intervening spaces.
413 To see all machines that are currently in the Idle state, the Unix com‐
415 mand is
416 % condor_status -constraint State==\"Idle\"
418 To see all machines that are bench marked to have a MIPS rating of more
420 than 750, the Unix command is
421 % condor_status -constraint 'Mips>750'
423 -cod option example
425 The -cod option displays the status of COD claims within a given HTCon‐
427 dor pool.
428 Name ID ClaimState TimeInState RemoteUser JobId Keyword
430 astro.cs.wi COD1 Idle 0+00:00:04 wright
431 chopin.cs.w COD1 Running 0+00:02:05 wright 3.0 fractgen
432 chopin.cs.w COD2 Suspended 0+00:10:21 wright 4.0 fractgen
433 Total Idle Running Suspended Vacating Killing
435 INTEL/LINUX 3 1 1 1 0 0
436 Total 3 1 1 1 0 0
437 -format option example To display the name and memory attributes of
439 each job ClassAd in a format that is easily parsable by other tools:
440 % condor_status -format "%s " Name -format "%d\n" Memory
442 To do the same with the autoformat option, run
444 % condor_status -autoformat Name Memory
446
448 condor_status will exit with a status value of 0 (zero) upon success,
449 and it will exit with the value 1 (one) upon failure.
