       -?, --help
              print help

ARGUMENTS

       job ...
              list of jobids and/or jobnames

EXTENDED DESCRIPTION

       The  arcstat  command  gives  the  status  of  a  job submitted to a ARC enabled resource. The job can be
       referred to either by the jobid that was returned by arcsub(1) at submission time or by  its  jobname  if
       the job description that was submitted contained a jobname attribute.

       More than one jobid and/or jobname can be given. If several jobs were submitted with the same jobname the
       status of all those jobs are shown. If the --joblist option is used the list of jobs is read from a  file
       with the specified filename. By specifying the --all option, the status of all active jobs will be shown.

       By   default  arcstat  presents  job  states  as  defined  internally  followed  by  middleware  specific
       representation of job state in brackets. The following internal job states are defined:

       Accepted - job accepted on cluster but not being processed yet

       Preparing - job is in phase of preparing for submission to batch system

       Submitting - communication with batch system in ongoing

       Hold - job's processing is suspended dueto internal reason or user request

       Queuing - job is passed to batch system but not being executed yet

       Running - job being execcuted in batch system

       Finishing - job in phase of post-execution procedures being run

       Finished - job successfully completed all processing phases

       Killed - job processing was interrupted by user request

       Failed - job processing was interrupted due to detected failure

       Deleted - job was removed from cluster (usually because it stayed there too long)

       Other - middleware specific job state could not be adequately mappped to internal state

       Those are also states which are used  by  arccat(1),  arcclean(1),  arcget(1),  arckill(1),  arcrenew(1),
       arcresub(1), arcresume(1) to perform job filtering.

       If the --long option is given more detailed information is shown.

       Jobs  can be sorted according to the jobid, submissiontime or jobname, either in normal or reverse order.
       By using the --sort or --rsort option followed by the  desired  ordering  ('jobid',  'submissiontime'  or
       'jobname'),  jobs  will  be  sorted  in normal or reverse order. Note that the options --sort and --rsort
       cannot be used at the same time.

       The --cluster option can be used to select or reject jobs at  specific  clusters.  See  arcsub(1)  for  a
       discussion of the format of arguments to this option. The --status option can be used to select jobs in a
       specific state. These options can be repeated several times.

       The arcstat command locates the available clusters by querying information index servers.  Which  servers
       to  query can be specified by giving the --index option to the command. See arcsub(1) for a discussion of
       the format of arguments to this option.

       Also in this case the --long option can be used to obtain more detailed information.

       Previously the arcstat command was also used to query information of clusters and/or index servers.  This
       functionality have been moved to the new command arcinfo

FILES

       ~/.arc/client.conf
              Some  options can be given default values by specifying them in the ARC client configuration file.
              By using the --conffile option a different configuration file can be used than the default.

       ~/.arc/jobs.xml
              This a local list of the user's active jobs. When a job is successfully submitted it is  added  to
              this  list  and when it is removed from the remote cluster it is removed from this list. This list
              is used as the list of all active jobs when the user specifies the --all  option  to  the  various
              NorduGrid  ARC user interface commands. By using the --joblist option a different file can be used
              than the default.

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES

       X509_USER_PROXY
              The location of the user's Grid proxy file. Shouldn't be set unless the proxy is in a non-standard
              location.

       ARC_LOCATION
              The  location  where  ARC  is  installed  can  be specified by this variable. If not specified the
              install location will be determined from the path to the command being executed, and if this fails
              a WARNING will be given stating the location which will be used.

       ARC_PLUGIN_PATH
              The location of ARC plugins can be specified by this variable. Multiple locations can be specified
              by separating them by : (; in Windows).  The  default  location  is  $ARC_LOCATION/lib/arc  (\  in
              Windows).
