Getting Info about Completed Jobs
The command qacct can be used to access SGE accounting information about your completed jobs. This information is saved in a file every night so unless you use the -f option (see below) you will just get information about your jobs in the current accounting period.
| Action | How to do it | Comment |
|---|---|---|
| Check on your finished jobs | qacct -o user_name -j | If you don't specify the -o option you'll get a summary of all the jobs ran by all the users during the last accounting period. If you don't specify the -j option you'll just get a summary report. |
| Check on older jobs | qacct -o user_name -j -f accounting_file |
To check on older jobs you need to specify an accounting file corresponding to the day your job finished. On PDSF the accounting files are kept at /common/nsg/sge/sge6_2u2_1/default/common. |
