To check the status of all running/completed CRAB jobs

Here is the awk script to accomplish this: awk_crab_status 
rm -f junk
touch junk
foreach d(crab_0_*)
crab -status -c $d | awk '{if ($2=="Retrieved" && $4!="0") print $0}' >> junk
echo " " >> junk
end

Using nohup command

Being stuck in India, it's a pain to copy even a few hundred MB file from FNAL to local machines. Also I am getting frequently kicked out from cmslpc machnies after a few hours of login. Turns out I can run commands on cmslpc using "nohup" option. If I get disconnected during the running of the command, it will still run to completion on the remote machine. 
cmslpc16> nohup test_cfg.py &
cmslpc16> exit
