Get running jobs in clustered Quartz

Question

How do I find out whether a particular job is currently running in Quartz when Quartz is clustered?

The standard answer to the "get running jobs" question is to use scheduler.getCurrentlyExecutingJobs(); But according to the javadoc, this doesn't work in a clustered environment.

Another answer is to use a JobListener and just store the status of the job somewhere when it starts and stops. But according to this, JobListeners do not work in a clustered environment:

Are JobListeners global in a Quartz cluster?

So what's the trick?

Answer 1

No way except querying Quartz table qrtz_fired_triggers directly.
