Abstract
A remote monitor technique based on a client/server model is provided for a distributed computing system having a plurality of computing nodes. The remote monitor includes a server application for collecting jobs information on jobs in a queue of the system and a client application for presenting or employing the jobs information. The client application can display the jobs information in a single display window comprising multiple subwindows for various characteristics of the jobs information. Jobs information displayed by the client application can be periodically refreshed. The remote monitor enables a user to monitor in detail jobs of a state defined by the user. The remote monitor can also track usage of preselected filesystems and automatically trims filesystems if usage is higher than a defined threshold.
