Name
condor_gather_info Gather - information about an HTCondor installation and a queued job
Synopsis
condor_gather_info[ -- jobidClusterId.ProcId] [ -- scratch/path/to/directory]
Description
condor_gather_infois a Linux-only tool that will collect and output information about the
machine it is run upon, about the HTCondor installation local to the machine, and
optionally about a specified HTCondor job. The information gathered by this tool is most
often used as a debugging aid for the developers of HTCondor.
Without the -- jobidoption, information about the local machine and its HTCondor
installation is gathered and placed into the file called condor-profile.txt, in the
current working directory. The information gathered is under the category of Identity.
With the -- jobidoption, additional information is gathered about the job given in the
command line argument and identified by its ClusterIdand ProcIdClassAd attributes. The
information includes both categories, Identity and Job information. As the quantity of
information can be extensive, this information is placed into a compressed tar file. The
file is placed into the current working directory, and it is named using the format
cgi-<username>-jid<ClusterId>.<ProcId>-<year>-<month>-<day>-<hour>_<minute>_<second>-<TZ>.tar.gz
All values within <> are substituted with current values. The building of this
potentially large tar file can require a fair amount of temporary space. If the --
scratchoption is specified, it identifies a directory in which to build the tar file. If
the -- scratchoption is notspecified, then the directory will be /tmp/cgi-<PID>, where
the process ID is that of the condor_gather_info executable.
The information gathered by this tool:
1. Identity
* User name who generated the report
* Script location and machine name
* Date of report creation
* uname -a
* Contents of /etc/issue
* Contents of /etc/redhat-release
* Contents of /etc/debian_version
* Contents of $(LOG)/MasterLog
* Contents of $(LOG)/ShadowLog
* Contents of $(LOG)/SchedLog
* Output of ps -auxww –forest
* Output of df -h
* Output of iptables -L
* Output of ls `condor_config_val LOG`
* Output of ldd `condor_config_val SBIN`/condor_schedd
* Contents of /etc/hosts
* Contents of /etc/nsswitch.conf
* Output of ulimit -a
* Output of uptime
* Output of free
* Network interface configuration (ifconfig)
* HTCondor version
* Location of HTCondor configuration files
* HTCondor configuration variables
* All variables and values
* Definition locations for each configuration variable
2. Job Information
* Output of condor_q jobid
* Output of condor_q -l jobid
* Output of condor_q -analyze jobid
* Job event log, if it exists
* Only events pertaining to the job ID
* If condor_gather_info has the proper permissions, it runs condor_fetchlogon the
machine where the job most recently ran, and includes the contents of the logs from
the condor_master, condor_startd, and condor_starter.
Options
—jobid <ClusterId.ProcId>
Data mine information about this HTCondor job from the local HTCondor installation and
condor_schedd.
—scratch /path/to/directory
A path to temporary space needed when building the output tar file. Defaults to
/tmp/cgi-<PID>, where <PID>is replaced by the process ID of condor_gather_info .
Files
* condor-profile.txtThe Identity portion of the information gathered when
condor_gather_info is run without arguments.
*
cgi-<username>-jid<cluster>.<proc>-<year>-<month>-<day>-<hour>_<minute>_<second>-<TZ>.tar.gzThe
output file which contains all of the information produced by this tool.
Exit Status
condor_gather_infowill exit with a status value of 0 (zero) upon success, and it will exit
with the value 1 (one) upon failure.
