For information about using HPC Cluster Manager, see Overview of HPC Cluster Manager.
Viewing job properties and results
In the View Job dialog box, you can see information about job details, the list of tasks in the job, the selected resources, the licenses, the results and statistics for the job, and the details and results for failed tasks in the job.
To view a job
In Job Management, in the Navigation Pane, click All Jobs. A list of all jobs in the cluster appears in the views pane.
In the job list, right-click a job, then click View Job.
The View Job dialog box displays job and task properties, states, and results.
Viewing task properties and results
If a task does not specify Standard Output and Standard Error files, the results are directed to the HPC Job Scheduler Service database and appear as the task’s output fields in the Task Properties dialog box. The database stores up to 4 KB of data per task. Any additional data beyond 4 KB is truncated. If the task specifies the Standard Output and Standard Error files, the task output is directed to those locations.
To view task properties and results
In Job Management, in the Navigation Pane, click All Jobs.
In the job list, click a job. A list of tasks for the selected job appears in the Detail Pane.
Right-click a task, then click View Task to display the task properties and the task results.
