SGE_QSTAT(5) Grid Engine File Formats SGE_QSTAT(5)

sge_qstat - Grid Engine default qstat file format

sge_qstat defines the command line switches that will be used by qstat by default. If available, the default sge_qstat file is read and processed by qstat(1).

There is a cluster global and a user private sge_qstat file. The user private file has the highest precedence and is followed by the cluster global sge_qstat file. Command line switches used with qstat(1) override all switches contained in the user private or cluster global sge_qstat file.

The format of the default files is:

The default sge_qstat file may contain an arbitrary number of lines. Blank lines and lines with a '#' sign in the first column are skipped. Each line not to be skipped may contain any qstat(1) option. More than one option per line is allowed.

The following is a simple example of a default sge_qstat file:

=====================================================
# Just show me my own running and suspended jobs
-s rs -u $user
=====================================================

Having defined a default sge_qstat file like this and using qstat as follows:

qstat 

has the same effect as if qstat was executed with:

qstat -s rs -u <current_user>
(Note that -u $user is now the default behaviour.)

<sge_root>/<cell>/common/sge_qstat global defaults file
$HOME/.sge_qstat	user private defaults file
