SYNTAX

#include <slurm/slurm.h>

void slurm_init_job_desc_msg (
       job_desc_msg_t *job_desc_msg_ptr

);

void slurm_init_update_step_msg (
       step_update_request_msg_t * step_msg

);

       job_desc_msg_t * job_msg

);

int slurm_update_job2 (

        job_desc_msg_t * job_msg,
        job_array_resp_msg_t **resp
);

int slurm_update_step (
       step_update_request_msg_t * step_msg

);

void slurm_free_job_array_resp (

        job_array_resp_msg_t *resp
);

ARGUMENTS

job_msg
Specifies the pointer to a job descriptor. See slurm.h for full details on the data structure's contents.
step_msg
Specifies the pointer to a step descriptor. See slurm.h for full details on the data structure's contents.
resp
Array of error codes and job IDs. Always use the slurm_free_job_array_resp function to release the memory allocated to hold the error codes.

DESCRIPTION

slurm_init_job_desc_msg
Initialize the contents of a job descriptor with default values. Execute this function before issuing a request to submit or modify a job.
slurm_init_update_step_msg
Initialize the contents of a job step update descriptor with default values. Execute this function before issuing a request to modify a job step.
slurm_update_job
Update a job with the changes made to the data structure passed as an argument to the function.
slurm_update_job2
Update a job or job array with the changes made to the data structure passed as an argument to the function. Call the function slurm_free_job_array_resp to release memory allocated for the response array.
slurm_update_step
Update a job step with the changes made to the data structure passed as an argument to the function.
slurm_free_job_array_resp
Release memory allocated by the slurm_suspend2, slurm_resume2, slurm_requeue2, and slurm_update_job2 functions.

RETURN VALUE

On success, zero is returned. On error, -1 is returned, and the Slurm error code is set appropriately. The function slurm_update_job2 returns zero if the resp array is filled, in which the that array should be examined to determine the error codes for individual tasks of a job array. Then call the function slurm_free_job_array_resp to release memory allocated for the response array.

ERRORS

SLURM_PROTOCOL_VERSION_ERROR Protocol version has changed, re-link your code.

ESLURM_ACCESS_DENIED The requesting user lacks authorization for the requested action (e.g. trying to modify another user's job).

ESLURM_INVALID_JOB_ID Invalid job or step ID value.

ESLURM_INVALID_TIME_VALUE Invalid time value.

EXAMPLE

#include <stdio.h>
#include <slurm/slurm.h>
#include <slurm/slurm_errno.h>

int main (int argc, char *argv[])
{
       job_desc_msg_t update_job_msg;

       step_update_request_msg_t update_step_msg;

       slurm_init_job_desc_msg( &update_job_msg );

       update_job_msg.job_id = 1234;

       update_job_msg time_limit = 200;

       if (slurm_update_job (&update_job_msg)) {

               slurm_perror ("slurm_update_job error");

               exit (1);

       }

       slurm_init_update_step_msg( &update_step_msg );

       update_step_msg.job_id = 1234;

       update_step_msg.step_id = 2;

       update_step_msg time_limit = 30;

       if (slurm_update_step (&update_step_msg)) {

               slurm_perror ("slurm_update_step error");

               exit (1);

       }

       exit (0);

}
