qcat(1)
qcat - display NQS request output.
SYNOPSIS
qcat [ -e ] [ -i ] [ -o ] [ -u username ] [ -v ] request-id
DESCRIPTION
Qcat displays the spooled stdout, stderr, or input script
file for the NQS request whose request-id is listed on the
command line.
An NQS request is always uniquely identified by its
request-id, no matter where it is in the network of the
machines comprising the NPSN. A request-id is always of the
form: seqno or seqno.hostname where hostname identifies the
machine from whence the request was originally submitted,
and seqno identifies the sequence number assigned to the
request on the originating host. If the hostname portion of
a request-id is omitted, then the local host is always
assumed.
The request-id of any NQS request is displayed when the
request is first submitted (unless the silent mode of
operation for the given NQS command was specified). The
user can also obtain the request-id of any request through
the use of the qstat(1) command.
To view the input, output, or error file of an NQS request,
the invoking user must be the owner; namely the submitter of
the request. The only exception to this rule occurs when
the invoking user is the superuser, or has NQS operator
privileges as defined in the NQS manager database. Under
these conditions, the invoker may specify the -u username
flag which allows the invoker to print the files requests
owned by the user whose account name is username.
OPTIONS
-e The stderr file is to be displayed. If the
request was submitted with the -eo switch, then
there will be no stderr file.
-i The input script is to be displayed.
-o The stdout file is to be shown. This is the
default.
-u username
Indicate the owner of the request, if not the
invoker.
-v List the version of the file.
the program.
BUGS
One cannot see any of the files of a job executing on a
remote machine.

SYNOPSIS
qcat [ -e ] [ -o ] [ -v ] request-id
DESCRIPTION
Qcat displays the spooled stdout or stderr file for the
NQS request whose request-id is listed on the command
line.
An NQS request is always uniquely identified by its
request-id, no matter where it is in the network of the
machines comprising the NPSN. A request-id is always of
the form: seqno or seqno.hostname where hostname identi-
fies the machine from whence the request was originally

local host is always assumed.
The request-id of any NQS request is displayed when the
request is first submitted (unless the silent mode of
operation for the given NQS command was specified). The
user can also obtain the request-id of any request through
the use of the qstat(1) command.
The -e switch indicates that the stderr file is to be
shown rather than the stdout file. The -o switch indi-
cates that the stdout file is to be shown. This is the
default. The -v switch will list the version of the file.
All other switches will print a indication of the usage of
the program.

One cannot see the output of a job on a remote machine.
