10.5 Filtering Results

Results Filter

Near the top of certain pages such as Job Management, Reservation Management and Node Management pages is a text area, a Submit Filter button, a Remove Filter button, and a Help button. This functionality allows you to filter the results on these pages to your liking. Filters are of the format, name:value. Multiple filters are allowed and are delimited by a space, such as, account:astrophysics user:mike. All entered name-value pairs are used to obtain the filter results. These are the components of the filter mechanism:

For any field configured in the management framework, you can specify a filter sub-element like so:

<fieldX>      
    <title>Data</title>      
    <filter text="data" enabled="true">          
        <suggestions>data1, data2, data3<suggestions>      
    </filter>  
</fieldX>

This will configure the <fieldX> field to have a column title of "Data", be filterable by using a "data:" operator, and give "data1", "data2", and "data3" as suggestions.

Note You can only filter on columns that have been configured in the table.
