Guide Section: Coupling To Software Applications | EASAP Tree: PROCESSES

MONITOR is a Child to a PROCESS. It is used to monitor the progress of a PROCESS currently submitted to the EASAP queue and possibly running on a compute server. MONITOR copies the file specified in its File: parameter from the Compute Server back to the EASA Server at a regular interval as specified in its Interval: parameter. By copying the specified file back to the EASA Server, MONITOR allows you to extract data from the file using an EXTRACT and then display this data to users as an indication of the progress of the submitted run.
