Synopsis
--------

**condor_status** [**-debug** ] [*help options* ] [*query options* ]
[*display options* ] [*custom options* ] [*name ...* ]

Description
-----------

*condor_status* is a versatile tool that may be used to monitor and
query the HTCondor pool. The *condor_status* tool can be used to query
resource information, submitter information, and daemon master 
information. The specific query sent and
the resulting information display is controlled by the query options
supplied. Queries and display formats can also be customized.

The options that may be supplied to *condor_status* belong to five
groups:

-  **Help options** provide information about the *condor_status* tool.
-  **Query options** control the content and presentation of status
   information.
-  **Display options** control the display of the queried information.
-  **Custom options** allow the user to customize query and display
   information.
-  **Host options** specify specific machines to be queried

At any time, only one *help option*, one *query option* and one *display
option* may be specified. Any number of *custom options* and *host
options* may be specified.

Options
-------

 **-debug**
    Causes debugging information to be sent to ``stderr``, based on the
    value of the configuration variable ``TOOL_DEBUG``.
 **-help**
    (Help option) Display usage information.
 **-diagnose**
    (Help option) Print out ClassAd query without performing the query.
 **-absent**
    (Query option) Query for and display only absent resources.
 **-ads** *filename*
    (Query option) Read the set of ClassAds in the file specified by
    *filename*, instead of querying the *condor_collector*.
 **-annex** *name*
    (Query option) Query for and display only resources in the named
    annex.
 **-any**
    (Query option) Query all ClassAds and display their type, target
    type, and name.
 **-avail**
    (Query option) Query *condor_startd* ClassAds and identify
    resources which are available.
 **-claimed**
    (Query option) Query *condor_startd* ClassAds and print information
    about claimed resources.
 **-cod**
    (Query option) Display only machine ClassAds that have COD claims.
    Information displayed includes the claim ID, the owner of the claim,
    and the state of the COD claim.
 **-collector**
    (Query option) Query *condor_collector* ClassAds and display
    attributes.
 **-defrag**
    (Query option) Query *condor_defrag* ClassAds.
 **-direct** *hostname*
    (Query option) Go directly to the given host name to get the
    ClassAds to display. By default, returns the *condor_startd*
    ClassAd. If **-schedd** is also given, return the *condor_schedd*
    ClassAd on that host.
 **-java**
    (Query option) Display only Java-capable resources.
 **-license**
    (Query option) Display license attributes.
 **-master**
    (Query option) Query *condor_master* ClassAds and display daemon
    master attributes.
 **-negotiator**
    (Query option) Query *condor_negotiator* ClassAds and display
    attributes.
 **-pool** *centralmanagerhostname[:portnumber]*
    (Query option) Query the specified central manager using an optional
    port number. *condor_status* queries the machine specified by the
    configuration variable ``COLLECTOR_HOST`` by default.
 **-run**
    (Query option) Display information about machines currently running
    jobs.
 **-schedd**
    (Query option) Query *condor_schedd* ClassAds and display
    attributes.
 **-server**
    (Query option) Query *condor_startd* ClassAds and display resource
    attributes.
 **-startd**
    (Query option) Query *condor_startd* ClassAds.
 **-state**
    (Query option) Query *condor_startd* ClassAds and display resource
    state information.
 **-statistics** *WhichStatistics*
    (Query option) Can only be used if the **-direct** option has been
    specified. Identifies which Statistics attributes to include in the
    ClassAd. *WhichStatistics* is specified using the same syntax as
    defined for ``STATISTICS_TO_PUBLISH``. A definition is in the
    HTCondor Administrator's manual section on configuration
    (:ref:`admin-manual/configuration-macros:htcondor-wide configuration file
    entries`).
 **-storage**
    (Query option) Display attributes of machines with network storage
    resources.
 **-submitters**
    (Query option) Query ClassAds sent by submitters and display
    important submitter attributes.
 **-subsystem** *type*
    (Query option) If *type* is one of *collector*, *negotiator*,
    *master*, *schedd*, or *startd*, then behavior is the same as the
    query option without the **-subsystem** option. For example,
    **-subsystem** *collector* is the same as **-collector**. A value
    of *type* of *CkptServer*, *Machine*, *DaemonMaster*, or *Scheduler*
    targets that type of ClassAd.
 **-vm**
    (Query option) Query *condor_startd* ClassAds, and display only
    VM-enabled machines. Information displayed includes the machine
    name, the virtual machine software version, the state of machine,
    the virtual machine memory, and the type of networking.
 **-offline**
    (Query option) Query *condor_startd* ClassAds, and display, for
    each machine with at least one offline universe, which universes are
    offline for it.
 **-attributes** *Attr1[,Attr2 ...]*
    (Display option) Explicitly list the attributes in a comma separated
    list which should be displayed when using the **-xml**, **-json** or
    **-long** options. Limiting the number of attributes increases the
    efficiency of the query.
 **-expert**
    (Display option) Display shortened error messages.
 **-long**
    (Display option) Display entire ClassAds. Implies that totals will
    not be displayed.
 **-limit** num
    (Query option) At most *num* results should be displayed.
 **-sort** *expr*
    (Display option) Change the display order to be based on ascending
    values of an evaluated expression given by *expr*. Evaluated
    expressions of a string type are in a case insensitive alphabetical
    order. If multiple **-sort** arguments appear on the command line,
    the primary sort will be on the leftmost one within the command
    line, and it is numbered 0. A secondary sort will be based on the
    second expression, and it is numbered 1. For informational or
    debugging purposes, the ClassAd output to be displayed will appear
    as if the ClassAd had two additional attributes.
    ``CondorStatusSortKeyExpr<N>`` is the expression, where ``<N>`` is
    replaced by the number of the sort. ``CondorStatusSortKey<N>`` gives
    the result of evaluating the sort expression that is numbered
    ``<N>``.
 **-total**
    (Display option) Display totals only.
 **-xml**
    (Display option) Display entire ClassAds, in XML format. The XML
    format is fully defined in the reference manual, obtained from the
    ClassAds web page, with a link at
    `http://htcondor.org/classad/classad.html <http://htcondor.org/classad/classad.html>`_.
 **-json**
    (Display option) Display entire ClassAds in JSON format.
 **-constraint** *const*
    (Custom option) Add constraint expression.
 **-compact**
    (Custom option) Show compact form, with a single line per machine
    using information from the partitionable slot.  Some information will
    be incorrect if the machine has static slots.
 **-format** *fmt attr*
    (Custom option) Display attribute or expression *attr* in format
    *fmt*. To display the attribute or expression the format must
    contain a single ``printf(3)``-style conversion specifier.
    Attributes must be from the resource ClassAd. Expressions are
    ClassAd expressions and may refer to attributes in the resource
    ClassAd. If the attribute is not present in a given ClassAd and
    cannot be parsed as an expression, then the format option will be
    silently skipped. %r prints the unevaluated, or raw values. The
    conversion specifier must match the type of the attribute or
    expression. %s is suitable for strings such as ``Name``, %d for
    integers such as ``LastHeardFrom``, and %f for floating point
    numbers such as ``LoadAvg``. %v identifies the type of the
    attribute, and then prints the value in an appropriate format. %V
    identifies the type of the attribute, and then prints the value in
    an appropriate format as it would appear in the **-long** format. As
    an example, strings used with %V will have quote marks. An incorrect
    format will result in undefined behavior. Do not use more than one
    conversion specifier in a given format. More than one conversion
    specifier will result in undefined behavior. To output multiple
    attributes repeat the **-format** option once for each desired
    attribute. Like ``printf(3)``-style formats, one may include other
    text that will be reproduced directly. A format without any
    conversion specifiers may be specified, but an attribute is still
    required. Include a backslash followed by an 'n' to specify a line
    break.
 **-autoformat[:lhVr,tng]** *attr1 [attr2 ...]* or **-af[:lhVr,tng]** *attr1 [attr2 ...]*
    (Output option) Display attribute(s) or expression(s) formatted in a
    default way according to attribute types. This option takes an
    arbitrary number of attribute names as arguments, and prints out
    their values, with a space between each value and a newline
    character after the last value. It is like the **-format** option
    without format strings. This output option does not work in
    conjunction with the **-run** option.

    It is assumed that no attribute names begin with a dash character,
    so that the next word that begins with dash is the start of the next
    option. The **autoformat** option may be followed by a colon
    character and formatting qualifiers to deviate the output formatting
    from the default:

    **l** label each field,

    **h** print column headings before the first line of output,

    **V** use %V rather than %v for formatting (string values are
    quoted),

    **r** print "raw", or unevaluated values,

    **,** add a comma character after each field,

    **t** add a tab character before each field instead of the default
    space character,

    **n** add a newline character after each field,

    **g** add a newline character between ClassAds, and suppress spaces
    before each field.

    Use **-af:h** to get tabular values with headings.

    Use **-af:lrng** to get -long equivalent format.

    The newline and comma characters may not be used together. The
    **l** and **h** characters may not be used together.

 **-print-format** *file*
    Read output formatting information from the given custom print format file.
    see :doc:`/misc-concepts/print-formats` for more information about custom print format files.

 **-target** *filename*
    (Custom option) Where evaluation requires a target ClassAd to
    evaluate against, file *filename* contains the target ClassAd.

 **-merge** *filename*
    (Custom option) Ads will be read from *filename*, which may be ``-``
    to indicate standard in, and compared to the ads selected by the
    query specified by the remainder of the command line. Ads will be
    considered the same if their sort keys match; sort keys may be
    specified with [**-sort** *<key>*]. This option will cause up to
    three tables to print, in the following order, depending on where a
    given ad appeared: first, the ads which appeared in the query but
    not in *filename*; second, the ads which appeared in both the query
    and in *filename*; third, the ads which appeared in *filename* but
    not in the query.

    By default, banners will label each table. If **-xml** is also
    given, the same banners will separate three valid XML documents, one
    for each table. If **-json** is also given, a single JSON object
    will be produced, with the usual JSON output for each table labeled
    as an element in the object.

    The **-annex** option changes this default so that the banners are
    not printed and the tables are formatted differently. In this case,
    the ads in *filename* are expected to have different contents from
    the ads in the query, so many others will behave strangely.

General Remarks
---------------

-  The default output from *condor_status* is formatted to be human
   readable, not script readable. In an effort to make the output fit
   within 80 characters, values in some fields might be truncated.
   Furthermore, the HTCondor Project can (and does) change the
   formatting of this default output as we see fit. Therefore, any
   script that is attempting to parse data from *condor_status* is
   strongly encouraged to use the **-format** option (described above).
-  The information obtained from *condor_startd* and *condor_schedd*
   daemons may sometimes appear to be inconsistent. This is normal since
   *condor_startd* and *condor_schedd* daemons update the HTCondor
   manager at different rates, and since there is a delay as information
   propagates through the network and the system.
-  Note that the ``ActivityTime`` in the ``Idle`` state is not the
   amount of time that the machine has been idle. See the section on
   *condor_startd* states in the Administrator's Manual for more
   information 
   (:doc:`/admin-manual/installation-startup-shutdown-reconfiguration`).
-  When using *condor_status* on a pool with SMP machines, you can
   either provide the host name, in which case you will get back
   information about all slots that are represented on that host, or you
   can list specific slots by name. See the examples below for details.
-  If you specify host names, without domains, HTCondor will
   automatically try to resolve those host names into fully qualified
   host names for you. This also works when specifying specific nodes of
   an SMP machine. In this case, everything after the "@" sign is
   treated as a host name and that is what is resolved.
-  You can use the **-direct** option in conjunction with almost any
   other set of options. However, at this time, not all daemons will
   respond to direct queries for its ad(s). The *condor_startd* will
   respond to requests for Startd ads. The *condor_schedd* will respond
   to requests for Schedd and Submitter ads.
   So the only options currently not supported with **-direct** are
   **-master** and **-collector**. Most other options use startd ads for
   their information, so they work seamlessly with **-direct**. The only
   other restriction on **-direct** is that you may only use 1
   **-direct** option at a time. If you want to query information
   directly from multiple hosts, you must run *condor_status* multiple
   times.
-  Unless you use the local host name with **-direct**, *condor_status*
   will still have to contact a collector to find the address where the
   specified daemon is listening. So, using a **-pool** option in
   conjunction with **-direct** just tells *condor_status* which
   collector to query to find the address of the daemon you want. The
   information actually displayed will still be retrieved directly from
   the daemon you specified as the argument to **-direct**.  Do not
   use **-direct** to query the Collector ad, just use **-pool** and
   **-collector**.
   

Examples
--------

Example 1 To view information from all nodes of an SMP machine, use only
the host name. For example, if you had a 4-CPU machine, named
``vulture.cs.wisc.edu``, you might see

.. code-block:: console

    $ condor_status vulture

    Name               OpSys      Arch   State     Activity LoadAv Mem   ActvtyTime

    slot1@vulture.cs.w LINUX      INTEL  Claimed   Busy     1.050   512  0+01:47:42
    slot2@vulture.cs.w LINUX      INTEL  Claimed   Busy     1.000   512  0+01:48:19
    slot3@vulture.cs.w LINUX      INTEL  Unclaimed Idle     0.070   512  1+11:05:32
    slot4@vulture.cs.w LINUX      INTEL  Unclaimed Idle     0.000   512  1+11:05:34

                   Total     4     0       2         2       0          0        0

Example 2 To view information from a specific nodes of an SMP machine,
specify the node directly. You do this by providing the name of the
slot. This has the form ``slot#@hostname``. For example:

.. code-block:: console

    $ condor_status slot3@vulture

    Name               OpSys      Arch   State     Activity LoadAv Mem   ActvtyTime

    slot3@vulture.cs.w LINUX      INTEL  Unclaimed Idle     0.070   512  1+11:10:32

                         Total Owner Claimed Unclaimed Matched Preempting Backfill

             INTEL/LINUX     1     0       0         1       0          0        0

                   Total     1     0       0         1       0          0        0

Example 3 The **-compact** option gives a one line summary of each machine using information
from the partitionable slot. If the normal output is this

.. code-block:: console

    $ condor_status vulture

    Name               OpSys      Arch   State     Activity LoadAv Mem   ActvtyTime

    slot1@vulture.cs.w LINUX      X86_64 Unclaimed Idle      0.000  679  1+03:18:58
    slot1_1@vulture.cs LINUX      X86_64 Claimed   Busy      1.160 1152  0+03:21:02
    slot1_2@vulture.cs LINUX      X86_64 Claimed   Busy      1.150 2560  0+10:20:50
    slot1_3@vulture.cs LINUX      X86_64 Claimed   Busy      1.160 2816  0+01:32:08
    slot1_4@vulture.cs LINUX      X86_64 Claimed   Busy      0.000 5081  0+00:00:00

                         Machines Owner Claimed Unclaimed Matched Preempting  Drain

            X86_64/LINUX        5     0       4         1       0          0      0

                   Total        5     0       4         1       0          0      0

For the same machine in the same state the **-compact** option will show this

.. code-block:: console

    $ condor_status -compact vulture

    Machine            Platform    Slots Cpus Gpus  TotalGb FreCpu  FreeGb  CpuLoad ST Jobs/Min MaxSlotGb

    vulture.cs.wisc.ed x64/CentOS7     4    8    2       12      0     .66      .98 Cb      .25      4.96

                         Machines Owner Claimed Unclaimed Matched Preempting  Drain

            X86_64/CentOS7      4     0       4         1       0          0      0

                   Total        4     0       4         1       0          0      0

The ``Slots`` column shows that 4 slots have been carved out of the partitionable slot, leaving 0 cpus
and .66 Gigabytes of memory free.  Static slots will not be counted in the ``Slots`` column.

The ``ST`` column shows the consensus state of the dynamic slots using a two character code. The first character
is the State, the second is the activity. If there is not a consensus for either the state or activity,
then # will be shown.  The example shows Cb for Claimed/Busy since all of the dynamic slots are in that state.
If one of the dynamic slots were Idle, then C# would be shown.

The ``Jobs/Min`` shows the recent job start rate for the machine.  A large number here is normal for a
machine that just came online, but if this number stays above 1 for more than a minute, that can be
an indication of a machine is acting as a black hole for jobs, starting them quickly and then failing
them just as quickly. 

The ``MaxSlotGb`` column shows the memory allocated to the largest slot in Gigabytes, If the memory allocated
for the largest slot cannot be determined, * will be displayed. 
Static slots are not counted in the ``MaxSlotGb`` column.

Constraint option examples

The Unix command to use the constraint option to see all machines with
the ``OpSys`` of ``"LINUX"``:

.. code-block:: console

    $ condor_status -constraint OpSys==\"LINUX\"

Note that quotation marks must be escaped with the backslash characters
for most shells.

The Windows command to do the same thing:

.. code-block:: doscon

    > condor_status -constraint " OpSys==""LINUX"" "

Note that quotation marks are used to delimit the single argument which
is the expression, and the quotation marks that identify the string must
be escaped by using a set of two double quote marks without any
intervening spaces.

To see all machines that are currently in the Idle state, the Unix
command is

.. code-block:: console

    $ condor_status -constraint State==\"Idle\"

To see all machines that are bench marked to have a MIPS rating of more
than 750, the Unix command is

.. code-block:: console

    $ condor_status -constraint 'Mips>750'

-cod option example

The **-cod** option displays the status of COD claims within a given
HTCondor pool.

.. code-block:: text

    Name        ID   ClaimState TimeInState RemoteUser JobId Keyword
    astro.cs.wi COD1 Idle        0+00:00:04 wright
    chopin.cs.w COD1 Running     0+00:02:05 wright     3.0   fractgen
    chopin.cs.w COD2 Suspended   0+00:10:21 wright     4.0   fractgen

                   Total  Idle  Running  Suspended  Vacating  Killing
     INTEL/LINUX       3     1        1          1         0        0
           Total       3     1        1          1         0        0

-format option example To display the name and memory attributes of each
job ClassAd in a format that is easily parsable by other tools:

.. code-block:: console

    $ condor_status -format "%s " Name -format "%d\n" Memory

To do the same with the **autoformat** option, run

.. code-block:: console

    $ condor_status -autoformat Name Memory

Exit Status
-----------

*condor_status* will exit with a status value of 0 (zero) upon success,
and it will exit with the value 1 (one) upon failure.
