EXTENDED DESCRIPTION

64       The arckill command kills a running job on an ARC enabled resource. The
65       job can be referred to either by the jobid that was  returned  by  arc‐
66       sub(1) at submission time or by its jobname if the job description that
67       was submitted contained a jobname attribute.
68
69       More than one jobid and/or jobname can be given. If several  jobs  were
70       submitted  with  the  same  jobname  all  those jobs are killed. If the
71       --joblist option is used the list of jobs is read from a file with  the
72       specified  filename.  By  specifying  the --all option, all jobs can be
73       killed.
74
75       The --cluster option can be used to select or reject jobs  at  specific
76       clusters.  See arcsub(1) for a discussion of the format of arguments to
77       this option. The --status option can be used to select jobs in  a  spe‐
78       cific state. These options can be repeated several times. See arstat(1)
79       for possible state values.
80
81       If the job was successfully killed the attepmt to remove the  job  from
82       the remote cluster will be made unless the --keep option was specified.
83       Depending on functionality of service job killing  procedure  may  take
84       time  and  it may be impossible to clean job immediately.  In that case
85       arckill will report number of cleaned jobs smaller than processed ones.
86       Cleaning of leftover jobs may be performed by running arcclean later.

FILES

90       ~/.arc/client.conf
91              Some  options  can be given default values by specifying them in
92              the ARC client configuration file. By using the  --conffile  op‐
93              tion  a  different  configuration  file can be used than the de‐
94              fault.
95
96
97       ~/.arc/jobs.xml
98              This a local list of the user's active jobs. When a job is  suc‐
99              cessfully  submitted it is added to this list and when it is re‐
100              moved from the remote cluster it is removed from this list. This
101              list is used as the list of all active jobs when the user speci‐
102              fies the --all option to the various NorduGrid ARC  user  inter‐
103              face  commands.  By  using the --joblist option a different file
104              can be used than the default.

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES

108       X509_USER_PROXY
109              The location of the user's Grid proxy file. Shouldn't be set un‐
110              less the proxy is in a non-standard location.
111

113       ARC_LOCATION
114              The  location  where  ARC  is installed can be specified by this
115              variable. If not specified the install location will  be  deter‐
116              mined  from  the path to the command being executed, and if this
117              fails a WARNING will be given stating the location which will be
118              used.
119
120
121       ARC_PLUGIN_PATH
122              The  location  of ARC plugins can be specified by this variable.
123              Multiple locations can be specified by separating them by  :  (;
124              in Windows). The default location is $ARC_LOCATION/lib/arc (\ in
125              Windows).
