jobs in linux

jobs -option command [ args ... ]
The first form lists the active jobs. The options have the following meanings:
-l List process IDs in addition to the normal information.
-p List only the process ID of the job’s process group leader.
-n Display information only about jobs that have changed status since the user was last notified of their status.
-r Restrict output to running jobs.
-s Restrict output to stopped jobs.

If jobspec is given, output is restricted to information about that job. The return status is 0 unless an invalid
option is encountered or an invalid jobspec is supplied.

If the -option option is supplied, jobs replaces any jobspec found in command or args with the corresponding process group
ID, and executes command passing it args, returning its exit status.



To manage the submitted jobs, ie., wait to launch a new job after the current job (./script) is done:

cat > .batch_$$ < ./script
EOF

set job_id = `qsub -j oe .batch_$$`

while (`qstat -f | grep $job_id` != '')
sleep 10
end
