Deadline Launcher CLI Help

Is there a way to use the deadlinelauncher.exe in no gui mode to query information from the slaves?

For instance getting the slave name, or current job etc according to the slave (as opposed to what might be in the database)?

No, there isn’t. The launcher isn’t meant to query anything, and deadlinecommand gets all its data from the database.

Is there a way I can get information about the slaves locally?

We’re running two slaves on one machine and I noticed that sometimes one of the slaves crashes. I want to write a script that checks to see if the slaves are running and re-launch the one that has crashed. It would also be nice to get any other information from the slaves directly like what job it thinks it’s running.

Thoughts?
