Allow submitting the source script on either the default
ECaccess batch queue or the ECaccess batch queue specified with the
-queueName option. ECaccess batch queue name can be obtained with the
ecaccess-queue-list command (the default queue is the first in the
list).
A special service (see option -eventIds) allows to
automatically submit jobs to be run when certain points in the daily ECMWF
operational forecast suite have been reached. The main purpose is to ensure
that certain data is available before e.g. submitting a MARS request. These
events correspond to the different stages when the ECMWF operational
activity has produced certain data or products. The list of events can be
retrieved with the ecaccess-event-list command.
In order to facilitate the migration from the old ECtools
(ecjreq/ecjput commands) the equivalents options can be set using their old
names (e.g. -at for -scheduledDate). This should limit the
scripts modifications for job submissions.
- source
- The name of the file which contains the job input script (depending of the
-distant option this file is either at ECMWF or local to your
workstation).
- -distant
- By default the source is specifying a file which is local to your
workstation. Using this option allow submitting a script which is already
at ECMWF.
- -encrypt
- By default the source file is uploaded through the plain text
channel (http). Using this option will force the upload to occurs through
the SSL secure channel (https). This option only apply for local scripts
(no -distant).
- -bufsize
length
- Specify the length of the buffer (in bytes) which is used to upload
the file. The larger the buffer the smaller the number of http/s requests.
By default a buffer of 524288 bytes (512KB) is used. This option only
apply for local scripts (no -distant).
- -at, -scheduledDate
date
- Allow specifying the start date for the Job. By default the job
will start as soon as possible. The format for the date is 'yyyy-MM-dd
HH:mm'.
- -nd,
-noDirectives
- Allow submitting a job with no scheduler directives. Some default
directives will be added to your input script to allow processing the
job.
- -tg, -gateway
name
- This is the name of the target ECaccess Gateway for the transfers.
It is by default the Gateway you are connected to. In order to get the
name of your current Gateway you can use the ecaccess-gateway-name
command. When using the commands at ECMWF the default Gateway is always
"ecaccess.ecmwf.int".
- -tr, -remote
location
- Defines the target ECtrans location in the format
association-name[@protocol].
- -to,
-transferOutput
- Request the transfer of the job standard output to the gateway and remote
location defined in the -gateway and -remote options.
- -te,
-transferError
- Request the transfer of the job error output to the gateway and remote
location defined in the -gateway and -remote options.
- -ti,
-transferInput
- Request the transfer of the job input to the gateway and remote location
defined in the -gateway and -remote options.
- -tk, -keep
- Allow keeping the transfers requests in the spool.
- -ni, -eventIds
list
- Allow giving a list of event-identifiers to subscribe to with the
Job. The list should be separated by ';' or ','.
- -eo,
-sterr2Stdout
- Force redirection of the job standard error output (stderr) to the job
standard output (stdout).
- -ro, -noRenew
- The job subscriptions to events will not be renewed.
- -mu, -mailTo
email
- Defines the target email address (default: current ECMWF user
identifier).
- -mb, -onStart
- Allow sending a mail when the execution/transfer begins.
- -me, -onSuccess
- Allow sending a mail when the execution/transfer ends.
- -mf, -onFailure
- Allow sending a mail when the execution/transfer fails.
- -mr, -onRetry
- Allow sending a mail when the execution/transfer retries.
- -queueName
name
- The name of the ECaccess batch queue to submit the job to.
- -jn, -jobName
name
- Allow specifying a name for the new Job (other than the Job
Identifier). If no name is specified then the name of the input script is
used.
- -mp, -manPage
content
- Allow giving the man page content which will be displayed to the
ECMWF operators in case of problems with your Job (e.g. what to do or who
to contact).
- -lt, -lifeTime
days
- Allow specifying the job input/output life time in days. The
default is 7 days.
- -rc, -retryCount
number
- Defines the number of retries. The default is 0.
- -rf, -retryFrequency
frequency
- Defines the frequency of retries in seconds. The default is 600
seconds.
- -version
- Display version number and exits.
- -help
- Print a brief help message and exits.
- -manual
- Prints the manual page and exits.
- -retry
count
- Number of SSL connection retries per 5s to ECMWF. This parameter only
apply to the initial SSL connection initiated by the command to the ECMWF
server. It does not apply to all the subsequent requests made afteward as
it is mainly targeting errors that can happen from time to time during the
SSL handshake. Default is no retry.
- -debug
- Display the SOAP and SSL messages exchanged.
ecaccess-job-submit -noDirectives ./test.txt
Transfer the local file test.txt to your ECMWF spool and
submit the job to the default ECaccess batch queue. The source does not have
any directives.
ecaccess-queue-list, ecaccess-event-list,
ecaccess-job-delete, ecaccess-job-get,
ecaccess-job-list ecaccess-job-restart and
ecaccess.
