NAME

helios_job_status - get a Helios job's exitstatus

SYNOPSIS

helios_job_status --jobid=<jobid> 
  
# return the exitstatus for job 12345
helios_job_status --jobid=12345

# first argument is assumed to be jobid, so "--jobid=" is optional
helios_job_status 12345

DESCRIPTION

The helios_job_status command can be used to retrieve the exitstatus a job recorded in the Helios collective database. When a job is finished using the completedJob(), failedJob(), or failedJobPermanent() methods in your Helios::Service class, an exitstatus is recorded. Successful jobs are marked with a status of 0, while failed jobs will have an nonzero status. If a job has been marked as finished in a Helios collective, this command will return that job's exitstatus via STDOUT. If the job in question does not exist or has not been completed, nothing will be returned.
