Find node resources

This panel allows you to find node resources for resource job parameters when you submit a job through the job submission wizard. This panel is used for job types such as start server, stop server, and start cluster.

To access this panel, first click Jobs > Submit. The job type that you select in step 1 of the Job submission wizard affects whether you can access the Find node resources panel in step 3. For example, if you select the job type, start server, in step 1, then in step 3 you can select Find to access the Find node resources panel.

Find

You can use the Find option to determine the node resources to display. The Find results are displayed in Available resources common to all selected nodes, after you click Find. Click Reset to clear the operators in column 2 and text in column 3.

Table 1. Find parameters. Read the column descriptions to learn about Find results.
Column 1 Column 2 Column 3
Except for the maximum results parameter, this column lists parameters that define node resources. The node name, job type, and unique identifier parameters are always available.
  • All parameters except type and maximum results: Valid operators for the find operation are = (equal to), != (not equal to), is null, and is not null.
  • Type: They type is preselected to the type of resource option that you need for job submission. You cannot change the type. The list contains one or more values of Server, Application, or Cluster.
  • All parameters except type and maximum results: Specifies the string or partial string of a parameter. A partial string is designated using an asterisk (*). For example, setting the node resource parameter to Server* finds all server type resources that start with Server. You can search for an exact match for multiple items by including comma-separated items. For example, you can search on two resource names by entering server1, server2. When you search for more than one item, you cannot use the asterisk.
  • Node names are included based on your step 2 choices.
  • Maximum results: Specifies the number of records that the find operation displays. Enter a value between one and the maximum number of records that can be retrieved as defined in the job manager configuration.

Example: If the resources are server1, server2, and server3, you can enter server or server* for column 3 and = for column 2 of the resource name parameter.

Available resources common to all selected nodes

Specifies the results of the find operation. If no choices are listed or you do not see the resource you want, you can search again. If your job is targeted to multiple nodes, only those resources that are present on all nodes will be listed. If at least one resource is listed, you can select one resource and click OK to return it to the parameter on the previous console panel.
