For those who are interested, we have deployed a crude dynamic monitor for freesurfer jobs running on the Open Science Grid. It can be viewed at http://xd-login.opensciencegrid.org/scratch/donkri/fsurfPoll.html . The display information is in addition to that which is currently accessible via "fsurf list" .
Each job runs in a sequence of three steps. The second step runs in parallel as two separate OSG jobs. These are your "recon-all -autorecon2" jobs. At the lower right corner of the webpage, the number of jobs for each user at each step is listed.
