Re: [Condor-users] Monitoring remote job progress

[Horvátth Szabolcs <szabolcs@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Javier,

Something that we did and was quite simple to implement to show progress 
is creating a separate script process before the job start and
periodically inspect the content of the output files. The calculated 
progress message than can be reported back to
either the job database using a custom attribute (or just as a message 
into the job's log file) using chirp or directly to your own monitor 
software.

Cheers,
Szabolcs
