Monitoring Jobs by Email

From the command line, type the following command with appropriate arguments.

% qsub arguments

The qsub -m command requests email to be sent to the user who submitted a job or to the email addresses specified by the -M flag if certain events occur. See the qsub(1) man page for a description of the flags. An argument to the -m option specifies the events. The following arguments are available:

• b – Send email at the beginning of the job.

• e – Send email at the end of the job.

• a – Send email when the job is rescheduled or aborted (for example, by using the qdel command).

• s – Send email when the job is suspended.

• n – Do not send email. n is the default.

Use a string made up of one or more of the letter arguments to specify several of these options with a single -m option. For example, -m be sends email at the beginning and at the end of a job.

You can also use the Submit Job dialog box to configure these mail events. See Submitting Advanced Jobs With QMON.
