getJobClusterData

Get specific user data for job on generic cluster

Syntax

userdata = getJobClusterData(cluster,job)

Arguments

userdata Information that was previously stored for this job

cluster Cluster object identifying the generic third-party cluster running the job

job Job object identifying the job for which to retrieve data

Description

userdata = getJobClusterData(cluster,job) returns data stored for the job

job that was derived from the generic cluster cluster. The information was originally

stored with the function setJobClusterData. For example, it might be useful to store

the third-party scheduler’s external ID for this job, so that the function specified in

GetJobStateFcn can later query the scheduler about the state of the job.

To use this feature, you should call the function setJobClusterData in the submit

function (identified by the IndependentSubmitFcn or CommunicatingSubmitFcn

property) and call getJobClusterData in any of the functions identified by the

properties GetJobStateFcn, DeleteJobFcn, DeleteTaskFcn, CancelJobFcn, or

CancelTaskFcn.

“Manage Jobs with Generic Scheduler” on page 7-34.
