setJobClusterData

Set specific user data for job on generic cluster

Syntax

setJobClusterData(cluster,job,userdata)

Arguments

cluster

Cluster object identifying the generic third-party cluster running the job

job

Job object identifying the job for which to store data

userdata

Information to store for this job

Description

setJobClusterData(cluster,job,userdata) stores data for the job job that is running on the generic cluster cluster. You can later retrieve the information with the function getJobClusterData. For example, it might be useful to store the third-party scheduler’s external ID for this job, so that the function specified in GetJobStateFcn can later query the scheduler about the state of the job. Or the stored data might be an array with the scheduler’s ID for each task in the job.

You should call the function setJobClusterData in the submit function (identified by the IndependentSubmitFcn or CommunicatingSubmitFcn property) and call getJobClusterData in any of the functions identified by the properties GetJobStateFcn, DeleteJobFcn, DeleteTaskFcn, CancelJobFcn, or CancelTaskFcn.

For more information and examples on using these functions and properties, see Manage Jobs with Generic Scheduler.
