How can I check the status of the specific job that was send to HTcondor?

Question

Is there a way to check the status of the specific job (e.g by cluster/process id) and how to retrieve those ids when job is submitted?

Answer 1

For further reference i solved this by Condor's ClassAd Mechanism.

I inserted a custom ClassAd attribute in my condor.submit file:

+customAttribute = myID;

Then i can check for example JobStatus for this Job by:

condor_q -constraint 'customAttribute == myID' -f "%s" JobStatus
