Gets the job history data for all finished, canceled, and failed jobs.

Syntax

Default (Default)

Get-HpcJobHistory
    [-StartDate] <DateTime>
    [-EndDate] <DateTime>
    [-ClusterConnectionString <String[]>]
    [-Scheduler <String[]>]
    [<CommonParameters>]

Description

The Get-HpcJobHistory cmdlet gets the job history data for all finished, canceled, and failed jobs for the specified time period. You can export this information to a database and create and run reports on the information. The time period is on and after the specified start date and time and before the specified end date and time.

You can schedule this cmdlet to run daily and export the job history to a database. You can then use this database to track job history.

Examples

Example 1: Get job history for the prior day

PS C:\>Get-HpcJobHistory -StartDate (Get-Date).AddDays(-1) -EndDate (Get-Date)

This command gets the job history for the past day. Run this cmdlet daily at midnight or some other appropriate time to update the database that you use to track job history.

Example 2: Get job history for multiple days

PS C:\>Get-HpcJobHistory -StartDate "7/12/2008 12:00:00 AM" -EndDate "7/23/2008 12:00:00 AM"

This command gets the job history for the period on and after 7/12/2008 and before 7/23/2008.

Parameters

-ClusterConnectionString

Specifies an array of cluster connection strings for the cluster to which you want to add the device drivers. The value format is host1,host2,host3. If you do not specify the ClusterConnectionString parameter, this cmdlet uses the connection string on the head node that the CCP_CONNECTIONSTRING environment variable specifies. To set this environment variable, run the following cmdlet: Set-Content Env: CCP_CONNECTIONSTRING \<head_node_name\>.

This parameter was introduced in HPC Pack 2016.
