SYNTAX

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

void slurm_free_front_end_info_msg (
    front_end_info_msg_t *front_end_info_msg_ptr
);

int slurm_load_front_end (
    time_t update_time,
    front_end_info_msg_t **front_end_info_msg_pptr,
);

void slurm_print_front_end_info_msg (
    FILE *out_file,
    front_end_info_msg_t *front_end_info_msg_ptr,
    int one_liner
);

void slurm_print_front_end_table (
    FILE *out_file,
    front_end_info_t *front_end_ptr,
    int one_liner
);

char *slurm_sprint_front_end_table (
    front_end_info_t *front_end_ptr,
    int one_liner
);

ARGUMENTS

front_end_info_msg_ptr
    Specifies the pointer to the structure created by slurm_load_front_end.

front_end_info_msg_pptr
    Specifies the double pointer to the structure to be created and filled with the time of the last front end node update, a record count, and detailed information about each front_end node. Detailed front_end node information is written to fixed sized records and includes: name, state, etc. See slurm.h for full details on the data structure's contents.

front_end_ptr
    Specifies a pointer to a single front end node record from the front_end_info_msg_ptr data structure.

one_liner
    Print one record per line if non-zero.

out_file
    Specifies the file to print data to.

update_time
    For all of the following informational calls, if update_time is equal to or greater than the last time changes where made to that information, new information is not returned. Otherwise all the configuration. job, node, or partition records are returned.

DESCRIPTION

slurm_free_front_end_info_msg Release the storage generated by the slurm_load_front_end function.

slurm_load_front_end Returns a ont_end_info_msg_t that contains an update time, record count, and array of records for all front end nodes.

slurm_print_front_end_info_msg Prints the contents of the data structure describing all front end node records from the data loaded by the slurm_load_front_end function.

slurm_print_front_end_table Prints to a file the contents of the data structure describing a single front end node record loaded by the slurm_load_front_end function.

slurm_psrint_front_end_table Prints to memory the contents of the data structure describing a single front end node record loaded by the slurm_load_front_end function.

RETURN VALUE

On success, zero is returned. On error, -1 is returned, and Slurm error code is set appropriately.

ERRORS

SLURM_NO_CHANGE_IN_DATA Data has not changed since update_time.

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

SLURM_PROTOCOL_SOCKET_IMPL_TIMEOUT Timeout in communicating with Slurm controller.

EXAMPLE

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

int main (int argc, char *argv[])
{
    int i;
    front_end_info_msg_t *front_end_info_ptr = NULL;
    front_end_info_t *front_end_ptr;

    /* get and dump some node information */
    if ( slurm_load_front_end ((time_t) NULL,
                        &front_end_buffer_ptr) ) {
        slurm_perror ("slurm_load_front_end error");
        exit (1);
    }

    /* The easy way to print... */
    slurm_print_front_end_info_msg (stdout, front_end_buffer_ptr, 0);

    /* A harder way.. */
    for (i = 0; i < front_end_buffer_ptr->record_count; i++) {
        front_end_ptr = &front_end_buffer_ptr->front_end_array[i];
        slurm_print_front_end_table(stdout, front_end_ptr, 0);
    }

    /* The hardest way. */
    for (i = 0; i < front_end_buffer_ptr->front_end_count; i++) {
        printf ("FrontEndName=%s StateCode=%u\n",
            front_end_buffer_ptr->front_end_array[i].name,
            front_end_buffer_ptr->front_end_array[i].node_state);
    }
    slurm_free_front_end_info_msg (front_end_buffer_ptr);
    exit (0);
}

NOTES
These functions are included in the libslurm library, which must be linked to your process for use (e.g. "cc -lslurm myprog.c").

Some data structures contain index values to cross-reference each other. If the show_flags argument is not set to SHOW_ALL when getting this data, these index values will be invalid.
