Parameter

job_specifier

Specifies the jobs for which you want to show scheduling information. You can specify another user’s job, as well as jobs on a remote node. Optional, defaults to the user’s jobs.

To refer to another user’s job by name, you must append an equal sign (=) plus the username to the job name. To refer to a remote node, you must precede the job name or number with the node name plus two colons, as follows:

[remote_node::]job_name_or_number[=user_name]

You can use wildcard characters in the job name and username. For example, MYVAX::B*=SYSTEM refers to all jobs beginning with the letter B, owned by user SYSTEM, and residing on remote node MYVAX. MYVAX may be a cluster member.

The output listing of scheduled jobs truncates job names to 20 characters when either the /BRIEF or /FULL qualifier is used; when neither qualifier is used, job names are truncated to 30 characters. If this is a problem, you can specify job numbers instead of names as unique identifiers.
