    33     This document is only available in the old format.
    34     See <ulink url="http://base.thep.lu.se/chrome/site/doc/admin/jobagent.sh.html"
    35       >http://base.thep.lu.se/chrome/site/doc/admin/jobagent.sh.html</ulink>.
     33    The <filename>jobagent.sh</filename> (or <filename>jobagent.bat</filename> on
     34    Windows) is a command-line utitlity for controlling the job agent.
     35    The syntax is:
     36
     37    <informalexample>
     38    <programlisting>
     39./jobagent.sh [options] command
     40</programlisting>
     41    </informalexample>
     42
     43    The options are optional, but a <command>command</command>
     44    must always be given. The script is located in the
     45    <filename>&lt;base-dir&gt;/bin</filename> diretory and you must
     46    change to that directory to be able to use the script.

     62./jobagent.sh -c other.config start
     63</programlisting>
     64          </informalexample>
     65         
     66          The default value is <filename>jobagent.properties</filename>.

     113          Pause the job agent. The job agent will continue running but
     114          doesn't check the database for jobs. To start it again use the
     115          <command>start</command> command.

     133        <para>
     134          Get information about the job agent. This will output a string
     135          in the form:
     136          <computeroutput>
     137          <literallayout>
     138Status:Running
     139Job:1
     140Job:5
     141</literallayout>
     142</computeroutput>
     143          <emphasis>Status</emphasis> can be either <constant>Running</constant>
     144          or <constant>Paused</constant>. For each job that is currently
     145          running, the ID is given. In the future, the <command>info</command>
     146          command may output more information. For example, there is already
     147          infrastructure code for cpu and memory usage. The only problem is
     148          that the information isn't easy to get for a Java program.
