TaskID

The ParaStation task ID of the process, both as decimal and hexadecimal number. The task
ID of a process is unique within the cluster and is composed out of the ParaStation ID of the
node the process is running on and the local process ID of the process, i.e. the result of calling
getpid(2).

ParentTaskID

The ParaStation task ID of the parent process. The parent process is the one which has
spawned the current process. If the process was not spawned by any other controlled by
ParaStation, i.e. it is the first process started within a parallel task, the parent ParaStation task
ID is 0.

Con

Flag to mark if the process has reconnected to its local ParaStation daemon psid(8). If a 1 is
displayed, the process has connected the daemon, otherwise 0 is reported.

UserID

The user ID under which the process runs. This is usually identical to the user ID of the parent
process.

Furthermore administrative processes, i.e. psiadmin(1) processes connected to a local daemon
are marked with “(A)” after the user ID.

Logger processes, i.e. root processes of parallel tasks which converted to a ParaStation Logger
process, are tagged with “(L)” after the user ID.

System processes, which are not counted, are marked as “(*)”. Accounting processes are
indicated by “(C)”. Other helper processes are marked with “(S)”.

job is shown.

For each job, information about the RootTaskId, State (= 'R', 'P' or 'S'), Size (= number of CPUs),
UID, GID and Target Slots are printed.
