Description

14       condor_qedit modifies job ClassAd attributes of queued Condor jobs. The
15       jobs are specified either by cluster number, job ID,  owner,  or  by  a
16       ClassAd  constraint  expression. The attribute-value may be any ClassAd
17       expression. String expressions must be surrounded by double quotes.
18
19       To ensure security and correctness, condor_qedit will not allow modifi‐
20       cation of the following ClassAd attributes:
21
22          * Owner
23
24          * ClusterId
25
26          * ProcId
27
28          * MyType
29
30          * TargetType
31
32          * JobStatus
33
34       Since  JobStatusmay  not be changed with condor_qedit , use condor_hold
35       to place a job in the hold state, and use condor_release to  release  a
36       held job, instead of attempting to modify JobStatusdirectly.
37
38       If  a  job  is currently running, modified attributes for that job will
39       not affect the job until it restarts. As an  example,  for  PeriodicRe‐
40       moveto  affect  when  a  currently running job will be removed from the
41       queue, that job must first be evicted from a machine  and  returned  to
42       the  queue.  The  same  is true for other periodic expressions, such as
43       PeriodicHoldand PeriodicRelease.

72       % condor_qedit jbasney NiceUser TRUE
73       Set attribute "NiceUser".
74       %  condor_qedit  -constraint  'JobUniverse == 1' Requirements '(Arch ==
75       "INTEL") && (OpSys == "SOLARIS26") && (Disk >= ExecutableSize) && (Vir‐
76       tualMemory >= ImageSize)'
77       Set attribute "Requirements".
