Let us now see how our suite ran, type the following:

> ecflow_client --get_state
This command will retrieve the suite definition from the server,
and show the status for each node.
Look at the task t1 if it is complete and the suite is complete
then the run was successful.
If this is not the case, and you might see aborted.
Please check the location (directory) of your ecf script before referring
to your instructor.
The job file created by the server is located in the same directory as the
ecf script, and is named t1.job1.
Compare the files t1.ecf, head.h, tail.h and t1.job1.
The output of the job is located in the same directory as the ecf script,
and is named t1.1.

Retrieving the suite definition

  • To retrieve the suite definition in a form that is parse-able, type:

    > ecflow_client --get

    This can be done in a python script:

    #!/usr/bin/env python2.7
import ecflow
try:
   ci = ecflow.Client()
   ci.sync_local()                                   # get server definition, by sync with client defs
   ecflow.PrintStyle.set_style( ecflow.Style.DEFS )  # set printing to format that is re-parseable
   print ci.get_defs()                               # print the returned suite definition
except RuntimeError, e:
   print "Failed: " + str(e)

  • To retrieve the suite definition and show state:

    > ecflow_client --get_state

    In python this would be:

    #!/usr/bin/env python2.7
import ecflow
try:
   ci = ecflow.Client()
   ci.sync_local()                                   # retrieve server definition, by sync with client defs
   ecflow.PrintStyle.set_style( ecflow.Style.STATE ) # show node state, this is not re-parseable
   print ci.get_defs()                               # print the returned suite definition
except RuntimeError, e:
   print "Failed: " + str(e)

  • To list just the node paths and states in python please see: How can I access the path and task states ?

What to do:

  1. Locate the job file and the output file
  2. Check results by retrieving the suite definition from the server
