[gridengine users] State of jobs

[Jesse Becker]

The qstat program won't report on jobs that are not either running ("r")
or queued ("qw" or "hqw").  If you run 'qstat -j <nonexistantjob>', you
don't get much output at all, and it's easy to tell that the job is no
longer (or not yet) in the system.

Or are you trying to specifically distinguish between running and queued
jobs?  "qstat -s r" will show only the former, and "qstat -s p" will
show only the later.

If you try to specify a specific job with the "-j" flag you get the long version where the state disappears (if you look hard enough you can figure out if a job is running by the i/o info, other states are not quite so obvious). Is there a way to get the same output of "qstat" or, even better, "qstat -r" for a specific job ?
