Administer nodes of the job manager

In a flexible management environment, we can view nodes with their version numbers based on the results of the Find option, and view node resources for nodes that you select. We can also view the properties and property values for a particular node.

Before we can view information about nodes, have registered at least one node with the job manager.

To display resources for selected nodes, the ID must be authorized for the monitor role.

The first time you access the Nodes collection panel, no nodes are listed. You must enter parameters for the Find option to obtain a list of nodes based on the parameter information that you provide. The next time you select Jobs > Nodes, a list of nodes are displayed based on the parameters you last specified on the Find option for this job manager admin console panel. We can then optionally modify the Find option criteria to display a different set of nodes. After at least one node is displayed, we can view information about the nodes. We can display all nodes by setting the string for the node name on the Find option to * .

 

• Optionally use the Find option to display a set of nodes.

  If no nodes are displayed, use the Find option to display nodes based on the parameter information that you enter.

  1. Click Jobs > Nodes in the job manager admin console navigation.

  2. To run the Find operation on specific parameters, specify a valid operator and a text string. Use the asterisk (*) character on the node name, job type, and unique identifier parameters to represent unspecified characters in conjunction with the characters specified.

     The node Find option has some advanced Find options that we can view by selecting the plus (+) character. We can enter partial search strings for the advanced find options as well.

  3. Click Find.

  The list of nodes along with their version number is displayed in the collection table.

• Optionally display resources for selected nodes.

  1. Click Jobs > Nodes in the job manager admin console navigation.

  2. Select the check box next to nodes for which you want to display resources.

  3. Click Display resources.

  4. Choose the type of resources to display.

  The resources are displayed for the nodes that you selected.

• Optionally display properties and property values for a particular node by clicking Jobs > Nodes > managed_node_name in the job manager admin console navigation.

 

Results

Depending on the tasks that you completed, we might have viewed nodes with their version numbers based on the results of the Find option, viewed node resources for nodes that you selected, or viewed the properties and property values for a particular node.

 

Next steps

We can continue to view nodes and do other job management tasks such as submit jobs, create node groups for job submission, and view node resources.
