Segway should put it's parent PID/Job ID in the job names it submits #62

Original report (BitBucket issue) by Eric Roberts (Bitbucket: ericr86, GitHub: ericr86).

It would be useful when running multiple Segway instances to have the submitted jobs have some sort of reference to the parent job that submitted it. This way you can easily track which jobs are coming from which instance of segway.

Don't the job names all include a UUID from the submitting instance? The problem with PID is that it is not necessarily unique on a cluster and neither is job ID. Not to mention job ID is not necessarily easy to find out.

Is it possible to map the UUID to the original submitting instance? The main problem is tracking which jobs are coming from which submitting instance.

Is it in the job name in jobs.tab?
