NAME
drmaa_strerror, drmaa_get_contact, drmaa_version, drmaa_get_DRM_system – Miscellaneous DRMAA functions.
SYNOPSIS
#include drmaa.h
const char *drmaa_strerror(
int drmaa_errno
);
int drmaa_get_contact(
char *contact,
size_t contact_len,
char *error_diagnosis,
size_t error_diag_len
);
int drmaa_version(

unsigned int *minor,
char *error_diagnosis,

);
int drmaa_get_DRM_system(
char *drm_system,
size_t drm_system_len,
char *error_diagnosis,
size_t error_diag_len
);
int drmaa_get_DRMAA_implementation(
char *drm_impl,
size_t drm_impl_len,
char *error_diagnosis,
size_t error_diag_len
);
DESCRIPTION
The drmaa_strerror() function returns a message text associated with the DRMAA error number, drmaa_errno. For invalid DRMAA error codes `NULL’ is returned.
drmaa_get_contact()
The drmaa_get_contact() returns an opaque string containing contact information related to the current DRMAA session to be used with the function. The opaque string contains the information required by drmaa_init() to reconnect to the current session instead of creating a new session. function.
The drmaa_get_contact() function returns the same value before and after is called.
drmaa_version()
The drmaa_version() function returns into the integers pointed to by major and minor, the major and minor version numbers of the DRMAA library. For a DRMAA 1.0 compliant implementation `1′ and `0′ will be returned in major and minor, respectively.
drmaa_get_DRM_system()
The drmaa_get_DRM_system() function returns into drm_system up to drm_system_len characters of a string containing xxQS_NAMExx product and version information.
The drmaa_get_DRM_system() function returns the same value before and after is called.
drmaa_get_DRMAA_implementation()
The drmaa_get_DRMAA_implementation() function returns into drm_system up to drm_system_len characters of a string containing the xxQS_NAMExx DRMAA implementation version information. In the current implementation, the drmaa_get_DRMAA_implementation() function returns the same result as the drmaa_get_DRM_system() function.
The drmaa_get_DRMAA_implementation() function returns the same value before and after is called.
ENVIRONMENTAL VARIABLES
xxQS_NAME_Sxx_ROOT- Specifies the location of the xxQS_NAMExx standard configuration files.
xxQS_NAME_Sxx_CELL- If set, specifies the default xxQS_NAMExx cell to be used. To address a xxQS_NAMExx cell xxQS_NAMExx uses (in the order of precedence):
-
- The name of the cell specified in the environment variable xxQS_NAME_Sxx_CELL, if it is set.
The name of the default cell, i.e.
default.
xxQS_NAME_Sxx_DEBUG_LEVEL- If set, specifies that debug information should be written to stderr. In addition the level of detail in which debug information is generated is defined.
xxQS_NAME_Sxx_QMASTER_PORT- If set, specifies the tcp port on which is expected to listen for communication requests. Most installations will use a services map entry instead to define that port.
RETURN VALUES
Upon successful completion, drmaa_get_contact(), drmaa_version(), and drmaa_get_DRM_system() return DRMAA_ERRNO_SUCCESS. Other values indicate an error. Up to error_diag_len characters of error related diagnosis information is then provided in the buffer error_diagnosis.
ERRORS
The drmaa_get_contact(), drmaa_version(), drmaa_get_DRM_system(), and drmaa_get_DRMAA_implementation() can fail with:
DRMAA_ERRNO_INTERNAL_ERROR- Unexpected or internal DRMAA error, like system call failure, etc.
DRMAA_ERRNO_DRM_COMMUNICATION_FAILURE- Could not contact DRM system for this request.
DRMAA_ERRNO_AUTH_FAILURE- The specified request is not processed successfully due to authorization failure.
DRMAA_ERRNO_INVALID_ARGUMENT- The input value for an argument is invalid.
DRMAA_ERRNO_NO_MEMORY- Failed allocating memory.
The drmaa_get_contact() and drmaa_get_DRM_system() can fail with:
DRMAA_ERRNO_NO_ACTIVE_SESSION- Failed because there is no active session.
