Evaluating the Status of a Job

Jobs run with Job Server can have the following statuses:

Job Status Description
waiting The job was submitted successfully to the job server and is waiting in the queue for compute resources
running The job is running
canceled The job was canceled by the user, either by using the Job Monitor panel in Maestro, or on the command line. Canceled jobs do not return intermediate results
stopped The job was stopped by the user, either by using the Job Monitor panel in Maestro, or on the command line. Jobs killed by the queue (e.g., due to exceeding wallclock limits) will also display a stopped status. Stopped jobs return intermediate results
failed The job did not finish successfully; for example, the application running the job crashed, or the calculation didn’t converge
completed The job finished successfully (although the results may not yet be downloaded to the launch host and directory)
