PBSNODES(1)

πŸ¦‹ PBSNODES(1) β€” the girlies' guide to pbsnodes πŸ¦‹

okay so bestie, welcome to the pbsnodes page from the User Contributed Perl Documentation, section 1 of the manual πŸ’… this one is genuinely so useful β€” it's your little backstage pass to everything your cluster's nodes are up to ✨


🌸 NAME 🌸

pbsnodes β€” display and manipulate host information in a PBS-like format πŸ’–

like, it shows you stuff and it changes stuff. dual threat. main character energy fr.


πŸŽ€ SYNOPSIS πŸŽ€

pbsnodes [-a] [node_id...]

pbsnodes -l [-n]

pbsnodes -{c|r|o} [node_id...] [ -N "note/reason string"]

three whole modes, three whole vibes, pick your fighter 🫢


⭐ DESCRIPTION ⭐

The pbsnodes command displays and manipulates information about nodes. that's it, that's the whole description β€” short, sweet, iconique πŸ‘‘


✨ OPTIONS ✨

  • -a β€” display information for all nodes. and lowkey? this is the default if you don't name any node, so if you just type the command all by itself you're already doing the -a thing 🩷
  • -c β€” clear OFFLINE from the listed nodes. un-offline-ing them, bestie 🌈
  • -l β€” list node names and their state for nodes that are DOWN, OFFLINE, or UNKNOWN. it's giving ✨problem child roll call✨
  • -N β€” specify a "note/reason" attribute. and yes, you can pass "" to clear the field entirely β€” poof, gone, no note, no problem πŸ’¨
  • -n β€” show the "note/reason" attribute for nodes that are DOWN, OFFLINE, or UNKNOWN. ⚠️ important: this option requires -l. it does not fly solo, it needs its buddy fr fr
  • -r β€” reset the listed nodes by clearing OFFLINE. functionally equivalent to -c. literally the same thing, just a different letter β€” twins 🫢
  • -? | --help β€” brief help message 🧚
  • --man β€” full documentation πŸ“– (that's this, you're here, hiii)

🫢 tiny reminder bestie: -n and -l are a package deal. -n alone is not the move. you got this πŸ’œ
