Credentials Area

The Credentials area displays information about the user who created/submitted the job.

The following table describes the fields in the Credentials area.

Field Description
User The user that submitted a job.
Group Displays the group credential, which represents an aggregation of users. User-to-group mappings are often specified by the operating system or resource manager and typically map to a user's UNIX group ID. However, user-to-group mappings may also be provided by a security and identity management service, or you can specify such directly within Moab.
Account Displays the account credential. This credential is generally associated with a group of users along the lines of a particular project for accounting and billing purposes.
Class Displays the job class. The concept of the class credential is derived from the resource manager class or queue object. Classes differ from other credentials in that they more directly impact job attributes. In standard HPC usage, a user submits a job to a class and this class imposes a number of factors on the job. The attributes of a class may be specified within the resource manager or directly within Moab.
Quality of Service Quality of service status applied to the job (for example, low, medium, or high).

CPU Statistics Area

The CPU Statics area contains a graph depicting the CPU statistics of the job. Click to open a pop-window to specify the range and refresh intervals for the displayed statistics. You can also manually update the display.
