Viewing the List of Running Jobs

About this task

You can view the tiering jobs currently running for a volume using the CLI and REST API. For a tiered volume, at any given time, there can be only one running job.

Procedure

Run the following command or send a request of type GET to retrieve the list of currently running tiering operations for a volume:

maprcli volume tierjobstatus -name <volName>

curl -k -X GET 'https://<host>:8443/rest/volume/tierjobstatus?name=<volName>' --user mapr:mapr

For more information, see volume tierjobstatus.
