Accessing the Job History

The job history is only supported by the Cluster Manager. While the nodes have a limited recent history of jobs, the Cluster Manager is able to record the jobs and the logs over a longer period of time. The exact lifespan is a configuration parameter that can be set by the system administrator. History information is persistent and can be accessed even if the cluster nodes are not available.

By default, the job history command will display the last jobs in your cluster.

> grbcluster job history
JOBID    BATCHID  ADDRESS       STATUS    STIME               USER   OPT     API
910878b9 4aba4ad3 server1:61000 COMPLETED 2019-09-22 15:55:24 jones  OPTIMAL grbcluster

66d4783b ada0a345 server1:61000 COMPLETED 2019-09-22 14:17:58 admin  OPTIMAL grbcluster

In addition, flags are available to query the history by status, username, time period, application name, and more. For example, the following command lists the last two jobs that were ABORTED by the user gurobi:

> grbcluster job history --status=ABORTED --length=2 --username=gurobi
JOBID    BATCHID  ADDRESS       STATUS  STIME               USER   OPT API
80334e25 5a4764cc server1:61000 ABORTED 2019-09-20 16:53:23 gurobi     Python
0d6d140b f94228b6 server1:61000 ABORTED 2019-09-16 22:04:09 gurobi     Python

This history command gives you access to the same views as the job recent command, but with more filters. For example, the following command shows the model characteristics of the last two jobs that were COMPLETED by the application app1:

> grbcluster job history --status=COMPLETED --length=2  --view=model --app=app1
JOBID    STATUS    STIME               ROWS COLS NONZ ALG OBJ DURATION
