# Tutorial: Map a running job to a pod and a node
<a name="eks-jobs-map-running-job"></a>

The `podProperties` of a running job have `podName` and `nodeName` parameters set for the current job attempt. Use the [DescribeJobs](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/batch/latest/APIReference/API_DescribeJobs.html) API operation to view these parameters.

The following is example output.

```
$ aws batch describe-jobs --job 2d044787-c663-4ce6-a6fe-f2baf7e51b04
{
 "jobs": [
  {
   "status": "RUNNING",
   "jobArn": "arn:aws:batch:us-east-1:123456789012:job/2d044787-c663-4ce6-a6fe-f2baf7e51b04",
   "jobDefinition": "arn:aws:batch:us-east-1:123456789012:job-definition/MyJobOnEks_SleepWithRequestsOnly:1",
   "jobQueue": "arn:aws:batch:us-east-1:123456789012:job-queue/My-Eks-JQ1",
   "jobId": "2d044787-c663-4ce6-a6fe-f2baf7e51b04",
   "eksProperties": {
    "podProperties": {
     "nodeName": "ip-192-168-55-175.ec2.internal",
     "containers": [
      {
       "image": "public.ecr.aws/amazonlinux/amazonlinux:2",
       "resources": {
        "requests": {
         "cpu": "1",
         "memory": "1024Mi"
        }
       }
      }
     ],
     "podName": "aws-batch.b0aca953-ba8f-3791-83e2-ed13af39428c"
    }
   }
  }
 ]
}
```

For a job with retries enabled, the `podName` and `nodeName` of every completed attempt is in the `eksAttempts` list parameter of the [DescribeJobs](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/batch/latest/APIReference/API_DescribeJobs.html) API operation. The `podName` and `nodeName` of the current running attempt are in the `podProperties` object.
