Synopsis

condor_ history [-help]

condor_ history [-l] [-f filename] [-format formatString AttributeName] [-backwards] [-constraint expr | cluster | cluster.process | owner | -completedsince postgrestimestamp]

Description

condor_ history displays a summary of all Condor jobs listed in the specified history files. If no history files are specified (with the -f option), the local history file as specified in Condor's configuration file ($(SPOOL)/history by default) is read. The default listing summarizes (in chronological order) each job on a single line, and contains the following items:

ID

The cluster/process id of the job.

OWNER

The owner of the job.

SUBMITTED

The month, day, hour, and minute the job was submitted to the queue.

CPU_USAGE

Remote user CPU time accumulated by the job to date in days, hours, minutes, and seconds.

ST

Completion status of the job (C = completed and X = removed).

COMPLETED

The time the job was completed.

PRI

User specified priority of the job, ranges from -20 to +20, with higher numbers corresponding to greater priority.

SIZE

The virtual image size of the executable in Megabytes.

CMD

The name of the executable.

If a job ID (in the form of cluster_id or cluster_id.proc_id) or an owner is provided, output will be restricted to jobs with the specified IDs and/or submitted by the specified owner. The -constraint option can be used to display jobs that satisfy a specified boolean expression.

The history file is kept in chronological order, implying that new entries are appended at the end of the file. As of Condor version 6.7.19, the format of the history file is altered to enable faster reading of the history file backwards (most recent job first). History files written with earlier versions of Condor, as well as those that have entries of both the older and newer format need to be converted to the new format. See the condor_ convert_history manual page on page  for details on converting history files to the new format.

Options

-help

Display usage information and exit.

-f filename

Use the specified file instead of the default history file.

-backwards

List jobs in reverse chronological order. The job most recently added to the history file is first.

-match number

Limit the number of jobs displayed to number.

-name quill-name

Utilize the given Quill database for history information, instead of the history file.

-constraint expr

Display jobs that satisfy the expression.

-format formatSpecAttributeName

Display jobs with a custom format. See condor_ q man page for details.

-l

Display job ads in long format.

-completedsince postgrestimestamp

When Quill is enabled, display only job ads that were in the Completed job state on or after the date and time given by the postgrestimestamp. The postgrestimestamp follows the syntax as given for PostgreSQL version 8.0. The behavior of this option is undefined when Quill is not enabled.

Examples

To see all historical jobs since April 1, 2005 at 1pm,

%condor_history -completedsince '04/01/2005 13:00'

Exit Status

condor_ history will exit with a status value of 0 (zero) upon success, and it will exit with the value 1 (one) upon failure.
