Viewing a list of jobs submitted to a queue between a certain time period

Question & Answer


Question

How to view a list of jobs submitted to a queue between a certain time period?

Answer

bhist can be used to get a list of jobs submitted to a queue between a certain time period. bhist uses lsb.events to get the job information by searching through the current lsb.events file. The -n option can be used to specify the number of lsb.events files to be searched. For example, -n 5 will search the last five lsb.events files, including the current one.

Here is a full example:

bhist -u all -q normal -n 5 -a -S 2018/1/16/00:01,2018/1/19/12:00


In this example:

-u all: looks for jobs submitted by all users

-q normal: looks for jobs submitted to the normal queue

-n 5: searches the last five lsb.events files (including the current one)

-a: shows all jobs (running, pending, completed, etc.). Otherwise, -S will only show running jobs

-S: searches for jobs submitted between 2018/1/16/00:01,2018/1/19/12:00
