of a running job. It can also be used to show A-REX's error log of a
job.

- a file containing a list of jobIDs
- -c,
--cluster=name
- select one or more computing elements: name can be an alias for a
single CE, a group of CEs or a URL
- -r,
--rejectmanagement=URL
- skip jobs which are on a computing element with a given URL
- -s,
--status=statusstr
- only select jobs whose status is statusstr
- -o, --stdout
- show the stdout of the job (default)
- -e, --stderr
- show the stderr of the job
- -l, --joblog
- show A-REX's error log of the job
- -P,
--listplugins
- list the available plugins
- -t,
--timeout=seconds
- timeout in seconds (default 20)
- -z,
--conffile=filename
- configuration file (default ~/.arc/client.conf)
- -d,
--debug=debuglevel
- FATAL, ERROR, WARNING, INFO, VERBOSE or DEBUG
- -v, --version
- print version information
- -?, --help
- print help
- job ...
- list of jobids and/or jobnames
The arccat command displays the stdout or stderr of running
jobs. It can also display A-REX's error log of a job. The job can be
referred to either by the jobid that was returned by arcsub(1) at
submission time or by its jobname if the job description that was submitted
contained a jobname attribute.
More than one jobid and/or jobname can be given. If several jobs
were submitted with the same jobname the stdout, stderr or A-REX error log
of all those jobs are shown. If the --joblist option is used the list
of jobs is read from a file with the specified filename. By specifying the
--all option, the stdout, stderr or A-REX error log of all active
jobs will be shown.
The --cluster option can be used to select or reject jobs
at specific clusters. See arcsub(1) for a discussion of the format of
arguments to this option. The --status option can be used to select
jobs in a specific state. These options can be repeated several times. See
arstat(1) for possible state values.
Only jobs where the stdout or stderr argument was given in the job
description can display the contents of those files.
- ~/.arc/client.conf
- Some options can be given default values by specifying them in the ARC
client configuration file. By using the --conffile option a
different configuration file can be used than the default.
- ~/.arc/jobs.xml
- This a local list of the user's active jobs. When a job is successfully
submitted it is added to this list and when it is removed from the remote
cluster it is removed from this list. This list is used as the list of all
active jobs when the user specifies the --all option to the various
NorduGrid ARC user interface commands. By using the --joblist
option a different file can be used than the default.
- X509_USER_PROXY
- The location of the user's Grid proxy file. Shouldn't be set unless the
proxy is in a non-standard location.
- ARC_LOCATION
- The location where ARC is installed can be specified by this variable. If
not specified the install location will be determined from the path to the
command being executed, and if this fails a WARNING will be given stating
the location which will be used.
- ARC_PLUGIN_PATH
- The location of ARC plugins can be specified by this variable. Multiple
locations can be specified by separating them by : (; in Windows). The
default location is $ARC_LOCATION/lib/arc (\ in Windows).
