Dear all,

at OGF-42, we stumbled over the issue that „JobInfo“ does not contain the 
original job name being used in the template:

http://redmine.ogf.org/issues/102

This leads to the situation that you cannot filter for it when doing monitoring.

Although we quickly decided to add it, I meanwhile figured out that this is a 
deeper problem. JobInfo intentionally contains nothing from the job template at 
the moment, which makes perfectly sense if you see it as a pure reporting data 
structure. You don’t need to fetch information that you handed in by yourself 
as the calling application. 

For filtering, however, you obviously want to have all of the template 
attributes being usable. This is not possible at the moment.

Another case is the „change job template after submission“ magic in Grid 
Engine, which could lead to the fact that your job has different attributes 
from what you originally specified. You may also want to see that in the 
JobInfo structure.

All in all, it seems like that „JobInfo“ needs all of attributes from 
„JobTemplate“ too, not only the job name. 

What do you think ?

Best regards,
Peter.
