Listing the users who have actually submitted jobs in LSF - lsf

I am use the following command to list all users and there pending jobs in LSF:
busers -w all
Example output:
USER/GROUP JL/P MAX NJOBS PEND RUN SSUSP USUSP RSV MPEND
aaaaa - - 0 0 0 0 0 0 200
bbbbb - - 100 50 50 0 0 0 200
ccccc - - 1 0 1 0 0 0 200
I'm looking for a command that will only display the users whose NJOBS value is greater than 0, i.e. those who have actually submitted at least one job.
In the example, that would mean that only the lines for users 'bbbbb' and 'ccccc' should appear.

To check all users jobs the simpler method would be:
bjobs -u all
To check suspended ones just use:
bjobs -u all | grep SUSP

Check value of PF_NO_SETAFFINITY

Is it possible to tell whether a process/thread has the PF_NO_SETAFFINITY flag set? I'm running taskset on a series of process ids and some are throwing errors of the following form:
taskset: failed to set pid 30's affinity: Invalid argument
I believe this is because some processes have PF_NO_SETAFFINITY set (see Answer).
Thank you!
Yes - look at /proc/PID/stat's 'flag' field
<linux/sched.h
#define PF_NO_SETAFFINITY 0x04000000 /* Userland is not allowed to meddle with cpus_allowed */
Look here for details on using /proc:
http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man5/proc.5.html
https://supportcenter.checkpoint.com/supportcenter/portal?eventSubmit_doGoviewsolutiondetails=&solutionid=sk65143
Example:
ps -eaf
www-data 30084 19962 0 07:09 ? 00:00:00 /usr/sbin/apache2 -k start
...
cat /proc/30084/stat
30084 (apache2) S 19962 19962 19962 0 -1 4194624 554 0 3 0 0 0 0 0 20 0 1 0 298837672 509616128 5510 18446744073709551615 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 16781312 201346799 0 0 0 17 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
The flags are 4194624
Q: Do you mind specifying how you'd write a simple script that outputs
true/false based on whether you're allowed to set affinity?
A: I don't feel comfortable providing this without the opportunity to test, but you can try something like this...
flags=$(cut -f 9 -d ' ' /proc/30084/stat)
echo $(($flags & 0x40000000))

Count the fields not including the zero value of the fields in crystal reports

I'm using Crystal Reports 2008. I have an output like this:
Customer Total Amount Jan Feb Mar Apr May
A 20000 1000 2000 5000 0 7000
B 15000 5000 7000 3000 0 0
C 18000 8000 5000 0 8000 0
D 5000 5000 0 0 0 0
How can I make count the fields from Jan to May without the zero field value? So the output will be like this:
Customer Total Amount Jan Feb Mar Apr May Count
A 20000 1000 2000 5000 0 7000 4
B 15000 5000 7000 3000 0 0 3
C 18000 8000 5000 0 8000 0 3
D 5000 5000 0 0 0 0 1
Thanks..
Create a formula for your Count columns something like this
IF {table.Jan} <> 0 THEN 1 ELSE 0 +
IF {table.Feb} <> 0 THEN 1 ELSE 0 +
IF {table.Mar} <> 0 THEN 1 ELSE 0 +
IF {table.Apr} <> 0 THEN 1 ELSE 0 +
IF {table.May} <> 0 THEN 1 ELSE 0

Avoid read-only forked() RAM allocation on exit in Perl

In Perl, I generate a huge read-only data-structure once, then fork().
This is to take advantage of COW on RSS pages when forking. It works really well, but when a child process exits, it allocates all the RAM from itelf just prior dying.
Is there a way to avoid this useless allocation ?
Here is sample Perl code that shows the issue.
#! /usr/bin/perl
my $a = [];
# Allocate 100 MiB
for my $i (1 .. 100000) {
push #$a, "x" x 1024;
}
# Fork 10 other process
for my $j (1 .. 10) {
last unless fork();
}
# Sleep for a while to be able to see the RSS
sleep(5);
In the sample vmstat output, we can see that it first allocates only 100MiB, then after the 1rst sleep it allocates the whole for a short while, and then releases all of it.

0 0 0 1329288 80596 86936 0 0 0 0 1032 60 0 0 100 0 0
Note: it seems it isn't a Perl version specific issue. As I tested 5.8.8, 5.10.1 & 5.14.2 and they all do exhibit this behavior.
Update:
As #choroba asked in comments, I also tried to undef the data-structure, but it seems that it triggers the memory-touching as the RAM is then allocated.
You can add the following snippet at the end of the first script.
# Unallocate $a
undef $a;
# Sleep for a while to be able to see the RSS
sleep(5);
Actually, as I found out myself, this behavior is a feature, and the answer lies in the Perl doc:
The exit() function does not always exit immediately.
Likewise any object destructors that need to be called
are called before the real exit.
If this is a problem, you can
call POSIX::_exit($status) to avoid END and destructor processing.
And indeed, adding it at the end of the original code sample does avoid the behavior.
# XXX - To be added just before ending the process
# Use POSIX::_exit($status) to end without allocating copy-on-write RAM
use POSIX;
POSIX::_exit(0);
Note: for this to work, the child has to exit also before the data-structure goes out of scope.

prstat on solaris - can you make it flash when size exceeds a limit?

I have been told to make prstat flash the background from white to black a few times when any value in the size category passes a threshold. Is there a way to edit the command and put this in here or will this never happen?
I'm not trying to be mean, but somebody who asked for this is not being reasonable or does not understand. I would guess the "asker" has no clue about prstat. Look at these two examples:
example% prstat -u root -n 5 -P 1,2 1 1
PID USERNAME SWAP RSS STATE PRI NICE TIME CPU PROCESS/LWP
306 root 3024K 1448K sleep 58 0 0:00.00 0.3% sendmail/1
102 root 1600K 592K sleep 59 0 0:00.00 0.1% in.rdisc/1
250 root 1000K 552K sleep 58 0 0:00.00 0.0% utmpd/1
288 root 1720K 1032K sleep 58 0 0:00.00 0.0% sac/1
1 root 744K 168K sleep 58 0 0:00.00 0.0% init/1
TOTAL: 25, load averages: 0.05, 0.08, 0.12
example% prstat -S rss -n 5 -vc -u root,john

240 root 0.0 0.0 - - - - 100 - 0 0 0 0 powerd/4
TOTAL: 71, load averages: 0.02, 0.04, 0.08
So, what value do you look for? There are lots of things prstat displays, so you have to learn all of them then code for whatever each of the many possible outputs means.
To do this:
What you will have to do is to run prstat with arguments entered on the command line, in a child process, read and interpret everything it produces, then map it to output and flash the screen as appropriate. You can do this with coprocesses in ksh or zsh or by using fifos in bash. Consider running prtstat in -e mode regardless of the what the user enters so you have full screens to read and manipulate.
Flashing the screen can be done with escape sequences, like changing background color or whatever you want. Here is a starting point for Windows based terminals:
ANSI escape sequences
And for Vt100 (UNIX)
terminal escape codes
