qsutils

A utility library and a collection of scripts to process and filter the output of SGE's qstat command

Installation

qtutils works on both Python 2 and Python 3. Install it from sources:

git clone https://github.com/savkov/qsutils.git
cd qsutils
python setup.py install

Usage

• Count jobs in all states, including running at the moment.

$ qsutils jobs
r: 347
t: 15
qw: 4

# You can also specify a user name, e.g.
$ qsutils --user mmb28 jobs

• Set the queues of all queued jobs to a predefined queue string (strings are stored in cfg file, see note below).

$ qsutils queues serial

• Set the throttle limit of all array jobs to the value of the provided command line argument.

$ qsutils throttle 10

Configuration file

In order for setqueues.py to work you need to have a ConfigParser style config file named queues.cfg with a section called [queues] in the current working path when running the script. Example:

[queues]
serial=serial.q,serial_lowmem.q
parallel=parallel.q
