Yo,
Here is the answer from your friendly neighborhood GOC, errr, CIC,
errrr, Big Site ;-)
Look in the magic files contained in
/opt/globus/tmp/gram_job_state
The first five lines of an example file from this directory are:
https://tbn18.nikhef.nl:20134/10114/1094464441/
26
4
25
102488.tbn18.nikhef.nl
I am pretty sure the first is the JM contact ID. The 5th line is
the PBS job ID. Subsequent lines have things that look very much like
EDG job IDs, probably with the sort of translations like
'~' -> %7e and that sort foolishness. So I think you can find almost
anything you want from these files.
