[torqueusers] Script to extract working directory for running jobs

[Yaroslav Halchenko]

Here is my list of bashizms...
which are
1. quite shorter
2. has just  a single invocation to qstat (which is quite important if
   you have a long list of jobs)
3. take care about dewarping of qstatf:-)

So for your purpose do something like 
(feel free to alias it, or make a function and feed its arguments to
qstatf, so you could work just on a list of job ids)

qstatf | prejobid | qstatfi PBS_O_WORKDIR

where

# Just qstat -f with warping removed
qstatf ()  { qstat -f $*| tr '\n' '&' | sed -e 's/&\t//g' | tr '&' '\n'; }

# to get Job Id: and prepend each line with it
alias prejobid="awk  '/^Job Id:/{ id=\$3; }{ print id, \$0; }'"

# select a field
qstatfi() {  grep -e "$*" | sed -e "s/^\(\S*\).*,$*=\([^,]*\).*/\1 \2/g" ;}


The other scripts I use

# Output Path
qstatfO()  { qstatf $* | grep Output | awk '{print $3;}'; }
# Execution host
qstatfE()  { qstatf $* | grep exec_host | awk '{print $3;}'; }
# Dumps output as of now for specified job #
qstatfOU() {
        for j in $*; do
                ex=`qstatfE $j`;
                echo "JOB $j:$ex"
                rsh ${ex%%/*} cat /var/spool/torque/spool/${j}*;
        done
        }

# Filter qstat by a list of keywords
qstatgrep ()
{
    cmd=""
    for pat in $*; do cmd="$cmd | grep -e $pat"; done
    eval "qstat $cmd"
}

# filter and show just a job number field
qstatgrepj ()
{
    qstatgrep $* | f1
}
