• plot-qmemuse: a tool to plot the memory and CPU usage of jobs that ran recently or are running in the high memory queues.
  • We monitor the jobs running in the high-memory queue, taking a usage snapshot every five minutes. This tool only applies to jobs in the high-memory queues
  • The resulting statistics can be used to visualize the resources usage of a given job with the command plot-qmemuse, using

   % plot-qmemuse <jobid>

 or

   % plot-qmemuse <jobid>.<taskid>

For that command to run, you must load the gnuplot module first. By default this tool produces a plot in a 850x850 pixels png file.

You can specify the following options:

-l <label>to add your own label on the plot
-s <size>to specify the plot size, in pixel (-s 1200 for a 1200x1200 plot)
-o <filename>to specify the name of the png file
-xto plot on the screen (using X11, assuming your connection to hydra allows X11)

You can view the plot in the png file with the command display <filename>, assuming that your connection to hydra allows X11, or

you can copy that file to your local machine and view it with your browser or a png-compatible image viewer (like xv).
