15 The pbsnodes command is used to mark nodes down, free or offline. It
16 can also be used to list nodes and their state. Node information is
17 obtained by sending a request to the PBS job server. Sets of nodes can
18 be operated on at once by specifying a node property prefixed by a
19 colon.
20
21 In order to execute pbsnodes with other than the -a or -l options, the
22 user must have PBS Manager or Operator privilege.
23
25 -a All attributes of a node or all nodes are listed. This
26 is the default if no flag is given.
27
28 -c Clear OFFLINE from listed nodes.
29
30 -d Print MOM diagnosis on the listed nodes. Not yet imple‐
31 mented. Use momctl instead.
32
33 -l List nodes marked as DOWN, OFFLINE, or UNKNOWN.
34
35 -o Mark listed nodes as OFFLINE even if currently in use.
36 This is different from being marked DOWN. An automated
37 script that checks nodes being up or down and calls
38 pbsnodes with a list of nodes down will not change the
39 status of nodes marked OFFLINE. This gives the adminis‐
40 trator a tool to hold a node out of service without
41 changing the automatic script.
42
43 -p Purge the node record from pbs_server. Not yet imple‐
44 mented.
45
46 -q Supress all error messages.
47
48 -r Reset the listed nodes by clearing OFFLINE and adding
49 DOWN state. pbs_server will ping the node and set the
50 state appropriately.
51
52 -s Specify the PBS server's hostname or IP address.
53
54 -x Same as -a, but the output has an XML-like format.
55
56 -N Specify a "note" attribute. This allows an administra‐
57 tor to add an arbitrary annotation to the listed nodes.
58 To clear a note, use -N "" or -N n.
59
60 -n Show the "note" attribute for nodes that are DOWN, OFF‐
61 LINE, or UNKNOWN. This option requires -l.
