gnt-job

Name

gnt-job -- job commands

Synopsis

gnt-job {command} [arguments...]

DESCRIPTION

The gnt-job is used for examining and manipulating the job queue.

COMMANDS

ARCHIVE

archive {id...}

This command can be used to archive job by their IDs. Only jobs that have finished execution (i.e either success, error or canceled jobs).

AUTOARCHIVE

autoarchive {age | all}

Archive jobs by their age. This command can archive jobs older than age seconds, or alternatively all finished jobs can be archived if the string all is passed.

CANCEL

cancel {id}

Cancel the job identified by the given id. Only jobs that have not yet started to run can be canceled; that is, jobs in either the queued or waiting state.

INFO

info {id...}

Show detailed information about the given job id(s). If no job id is given, all jobs are examined (warning, this is a lot of information).

LIST

list [--no-headers] [--separator=SEPARATOR]
[-o [+]FIELD,...]

Lists the jobs and their status. By default, the job id, job status, and a small job description is listed, but additional parameters can be selected.

The --no-headers option will skip the initial header line. The --separator option takes an argument which denotes what will be used between the output fields. Both these options are to help scripting.

The -o option takes a comma-separated list of output fields. The available fields and their meaning are:

id

the job id

status

the status of the job

received_ts

the timestamp the job was received

start_ts

the timestamp when the job was started

end_ts

the timestamp when the job was ended

summary

a summary of the opcodes that define the job

ops

the list of opcodes defining the job

opresult

the list of opcode results

opstatus

the list of opcode statuses

oplog

the list of opcode logs

opstart

the list of opcode start times (before acquiring locks)

opexec

the list of opcode execution start times (after acquiring any necessary locks)

opend

the list of opcode end times

lock_status

the lock status (useful for debugging)

If the value of the option starts with the character +, the new fields will be added to the default list. This allows to quickly see the default list plus a few other fields, instead of retyping the entire list of fields.

WATCH

watch [id]

This command follows the output of the job by the given id and prints it.
