| 2 | =========== |

| 3 | |
---|
| 4 | Job Monarch is a set of tools to monitor and optionally archive (batch)job information. |
---|
| 5 | |
---|
| 6 | It is a addon for the Ganglia monitoring system and plugs in to a existing Ganglia setup. |
---|
| 7 | |

---|
| 10 | |
---|
| 11 | Job Monarch stands for 'Job Monitoring and Archiving' tool and consists of three (3) components: |
---|
| 12 | |
---|
| 13 | * jobmond |
---|
| 14 | |
---|
| 15 | The Job Monitoring Daemon. |
---|
| 16 | |
---|
| 17 | Gathers PBS/Torque batch statistics on jobs/nodes and submits them into |
---|
| 18 | Ganglia's XML stream. |
---|
| 19 | |
---|
| 20 | Through this daemon, users are able to view the PBS/Torque batch system and the |
---|
| 21 | jobs/nodes that are in it (be it either running or queued). |
---|
| 22 | |
---|
| 23 | * jobarchived |
---|
| 24 | |
---|
| 25 | The Job Archiving Daemon (optionally). |
---|
| 26 | |
---|
| 27 | Listens to Ganglia's XML stream and archives the job and node statistics. |
---|
| 28 | It stores the job statistics in a Postgres SQL database and the node statistics |
---|
| 29 | in RRD files. |
---|
| 30 | |
---|
| 31 | Through this daemon, users are able to lookup a old/finished job |
---|
| 32 | and view all it's statistics. |
---|
| 33 | |
---|
| 34 | Optionally: You can either choose to use this daemon if your users have use for it. |
---|
| 35 | As it can be a heavy application to run - even though optimized (staged/buffered writes |
---|
| 36 | and multi threaded) - and not everyone may have a need for it. |
---|
| 37 | |
---|
| 38 | * web |
---|
| 39 | |
---|
| 40 | The Job Monarch web interface. |
---|
| 41 | |
---|
| 42 | This interfaces with the jobmond data and (optionally) the jobarchived and presents the |
---|
| 43 | data and graphs. |
---|
| 44 | |
---|
| 45 | It does this in a similar layout/setup as Ganglia itself, so the navigation and usage is intuitive. |
---|
