DESCRIPTION

       The globusrun program for submits and manages jobs run on a local or remote job host. The
       jobs are controlled by the globus-job-manager program which interfaces with a local
       resource manager that schedules and executes the job.

       The globusrun program can be run in a number of different modes chosen by command-line
       options.

       When -help, -usage, -version, or -versions command-line options are used, globusrun will
       print out diagnostic information and then exit.

       When the -p or -parse command-line option is present, globusrun will verify the syntax of
       the RSL specification and then terminate. If the syntax is valid, globusrun will print out
       the string RSL Parsed Successfully... and exit with a zero exit code; otherwise, it will
       print an error message and terminate with a non-zero exit code.

       When the -a or -authenticate-only command-line option is present, globusrun will verify
       that the service named by RESOURCE exists and the client’s credentials are granted
       permission to access that service. If authentication is successful, globusrun will display
       the string GRAM Authentication test successful and exit with a zero exit code; otherwise
       it will print an explanation of the problem and will with a non-zero exit code.

       When the -j or -jobmanager-version command-line option is present, globusrun will attempt
       to determine the software version that the service named by RESOURCE is running. If
       successful, it will display both the Toolkit version and the Job Manager package version
       and exit with a zero exit code; otherwise, it will print an explanation of the problem and
       exit with a non-zero exit code.

       When the -k or -kill command-line option is present, globusrun will attempt to terminate
       the job named by JOB_ID. If successful, globusrun will exit with zero; otherwise it will
       display an explanation of the problem and exit with a non-zero exit code.

       When the -y or -refresh-proxy command-line option is present, globusrun will attempt to
       delegate a new X.509 proxy to the job manager which is managing the job named by JOBID. If
       successful, globusrun will exit with zero; otherwise it will display an explanation of the
       problem and exit with a non-zero exit code. This behavior can be modified by the
       -full-proxy or -D command-line options to enable full proxy delegation. The default is
       limited proxy delegation.

       When the -status command-line option is present, globusrun will attempt to determine the
       current state of the job. If successful, the state will be printed to standard output and
       globusrun will exit with a zero exit code; otherwise, a description of the error will be
       displayed and it will exit with a non-zero exit code.

       Otherwise, globusrun will submit the job to a GRAM service. By default, globusrun waits
       until the job has terminated or failed before exiting, displaying information about job
       state changes and at exit time, the job exit code if it is provided by the GRAM service.

       The globusrun program can also function as a GASS file server to allow the
       globus-job-manager program to stage files to and from the machine on which globusrun is
       executed to the GRAM service node. This behavior is controlled by the -s, -o, and -w
       command-line options.

       Jobs submitted by globusrun can be monitored interactively or detached. To have globusrun
       detach from the GRAM service after submitting the job, use the -b or -F command-line
       options.

OPTIONS

       -help
           Display a help message to standard error and exit.

       -usage
           Display a one-line usage summary to standard error and exit.

       -version
           Display the software version of globusrun to standard error and exit.

       -versions
           Display the software version of all modules used by globusrun (including DiRT
           information) to standard error and then exit.

       -p, -parse
           Do a parse check on the job specification and print diagnostics. If a parse error
           occurs, globusrun exits with a non-zero exit code.

       -f FILENAME, -file FILENAME
           Read job specification from the file named by FILENAME

       -n, -no-interrupt
           Disable handling of the SIGINT signal, so that the interrupt character (typically
           Control-C causes globusrun to terminate without canceling the job.

       -r RESOURCE
           Submit the request to the resource specified by RESOURCE. A resource may be specified
           in the following ways:

           •   HOST

           •   HOST:PORT

           •   HOST:PORT/SERVICE

           •   HOST/SERVICE

           •   HOST:/SERVICE

           •   HOST::SUBJECT

           •   HOST:PORT:SUBJECT

           •   HOST/SERVICE:SUBJECT

           •   HOST:/SERVICE:SUBJECT

           •   HOST:PORT/SERVICE:SUBJECT If any of PORT, SERVICE, or SUBJECT is omitted, the
               defaults of 2811, jobmanager, and host@HOST are used respectively.

       -j, -jobmanager-version
           Print the software version being run by the service running at RESOURCE.

       -k JOBID, -kill JOBID
           Kill the job named by JOBID.

       -D, -full-proxy
           Delegate a full impersonation proxy to the service. By default, a limited proxy is
           delegated when needed.

       -y, -refresh-proxy: Delegate a new proxy to the service processing JOBID.

       -status
           Display the current status of the job named by JOBID.

       -q, -quiet
           Do not display job state change or exit code information.

       -o, -output-enable
           Start a GASS server within the globusrun application that allows access to its
           standard output and standard error streams only. Also, augment the RSL with a
           definition of the GLOBUSRUN_GASS_URL RSL substitution and add stdout and stderr
           clauses which redirect the output and error streams of the job to the output and error
           streams of the interactive globusrun command. If this is specified, then globusrun
           acts as though the -q were also specified.

       -s, -server
           Start a GASS server within the globusrun application that allows access to its
           standard output and standard error streams for writing and any file local the the
           globusrun invocation for reading. Also, augment the RSL with a definition of the
           GLOBUSRUN_GASS_URL RSL substitution and add stdout and stderr clauses which redirect
           the output and error streams of the job to the output and error streams of the
           interactive globusrun command. If this is specified, then globusrun acts as though the
           -q were also specified.

       -w, -write-allow
           Start a GASS server within the globusrun application that allows access to its
           standard output and standard error streams for writing and any file local the the
           globusrun invocation for reading or writing. Also, augment the RSL with a definition
           of the GLOBUSRUN_GASS_URL RSL substitution and add stdout and stderr clauses which
           redirect the output and error streams of the job to the output and error streams of
           the interactive globusrun command. If this is specified, then globusrun acts as though
           the -q were also specified.

       -b, -batch
           Terminate after submitting the job to the GRAM service. The GASS-related options can
           be used to stage input files, but standard output, standard error, and file staging
           after the job completes will not be processed. The globusrun program will exit after
           the job hits any of the following states:

           •   PENDING

           •   ACTIVE

           •   FAILED

           •   DONE

       -F, -fast-batch
           Terminate after submitting the job to the GRAM service. The globusrun program will
           exit after it receives a reply from the service. The JOBID will be displayed to
           standard output before terminating so that the job can be checked with the -status
           command-line option or modified by the -refresh-proxy or -kill command-line options.

       -d, -dryrun
           Submit the job with the dryrun attribute set to true. When this is done, the job
           manager will prepare to start the job but start short of submitting it to the service.
           This can be used to detect problems with the RSL.

ENVIRONMENT

       The following variables affect the execution of globusrun

       X509_USER_PROXY
           Path to proxy credential.

       X509_CERT_DIR
           Path to trusted certificate directory.

BUGS

       The globusrun program assumes any failure to contact the job means the job has terminated.
       In fact, this may be due to the globus-job-manager program exiting after all jobs it is
       managing have reached the DONE or FAILED states. In order to reliably detect job
       termination, the two_phase RSL attribute should be used.
