torque_job_status: helper function to get the status of jobs on a TORQUE cluster
Description
helper function to get the status of jobs on a TORQUE cluster
Usage
torque_job_status(job_ids, user = NULL)
Value
a data.frame with the job status for each id
Arguments
- job_ids
a vector of job ids to check
- user
the user who submitted the jobs
Details
Torque does not keep information about completed jobs available in qstat or qselect.
Thus, we need to log when a job is listed as queued, so that it 'going missing' is evidence of it being completed.
