Hi Ray Are you running the reports tool? https://wiki.galaxyproject.org/Admin/UsageReports you can inform your user about this page, and then, they can check the "All unfinished jobs" page. This is probably the easiest way - though you need to consider, that all users can see each other jobs (i.e the executed command line) on that extra web site Regards, Hans-Rudolf On 04/15/2016 09:22 AM, Raymond Wan wrote:
Dear all,
I know Galaxy is independent of the underlying queuing system but is it possible to display the status of the queue to users via the Galaxy interface?
I understand that the jobs are submitted under the name of the owner of the Galaxy process. And that there is a way to fix this [1], but I think I'm fine with leaving it as-is. I guess it would be nice if users can see how long the queue is.
The naive way that I'm thinking about is to have a cronjob that runs "squeue" (we are using SLURM) periodically. Its output is cleaned up by a script and a "static" HTML file is generated for Galaxy to display.
I don't know if there is a more sensible way that fits within the framework of Galaxy. Is this approach acceptable or is there a better / easier way that I've completely missed?
Thank you!
Ray
