Synopsis

mdiag -j [jobid] [-t <partition>] [-v] [-w] [--flags=policy] [--format=xml]

Overview

The mdiag -j command provides detailed information about the state of jobs Moab is currently tracking. This command also performs a large number of sanity and state checks. The job configuration and status information, as well as the results of the various checks, are presented by this command. If the -v (verbose) flag is specified, additional information about less common job attributes is displayed. If --flags=policy is specified, information about job templates is displayed.

If used with the -t <partition> option on a running job, the only thing mdiag -j shows is if the job is running on the specified partition. If used on job that is not running, it shows if the job is able to run on the specified partition.

The -w flag enables you to select only jobs associated with a given credential (user, acct, class, group, qos). For example:

mdiag -j -w user=david

Output from the preceding example displays only the user named David's jobs.

XML Output

If XML output is requested (via the --format=xml argument), XML based node information will be written to STDOUT in the following format:

<Data>
  <job ATTR="VALUE" ... > </job>
  ...
</Data>

For information about legal attributes, refer to the XML Attributes table.
