6 qdel - delete Grid Engine jobs from queues

9 qdel [ -f ] [ -help ] [ -u wc_user_list ] [ wc_job_range_list ]
10
12 qdel provides a means for a user/operator/manager to delete one or more
13 jobs. A manager/operator can delete jobs belonging to any user, while a
14 regular user can only delete his or her own jobs. If a manager wants
15 to delete another user's job, the manager can specify the job id. If
16 the manager is using a job name or pattern, he or she must also specify
17 the user's name via "-u wc_user_list". A "qdel wc_job_name" will delete
18 only the jobs of the calling user by default. qdel deletes jobs in the
19 order in which their job identifiers are presented. Find additional
20 information concerning wc_user_list and wc_job_list in sge_types(1).
21
23 -f Force action for running jobs. The job(s) are deleted from the
24 list of jobs registered at sge_qmaster(8) even if the
25 sge_execd(8) controlling the job(s) does not respond to the
26 delete request sent by sge_qmaster(8).
27 Users which are neither Grid Engine managers nor operators can only use
29 the -f option (for their own jobs) if the cluster configuration entry
30 qmaster_params contains the flag ENABLE_FORCED_QDEL (see sge_conf(5)).
31 However, behavior for administrative and non-administrative users dif‐
32 fers. Jobs are deleted from the Grid Engine database immediately in
33 case of administrators. Otherwise, a regular deletion is attempted
34 first and a forced cancellation is only executed if the regular dele‐
35 tion was unsuccessful.
36 -help Prints a listing of all options.
38 -u wc_user_list
40 Deletes only those jobs which were submitted by users specified
41 in the list of usernames. For managers it is possible to use
42 qdel -u "*" to delete all jobs of all users. If a manager wants
43 to delete a specific job of a user, he has to specify the user
44 and the job. If no job is specified all jobs from that user are
45 deleted.
46 wc_job_range_list
48 A list of jobs, which should be deleted
49
51 SGE_ROOT Specifies the location of the Grid Engine standard con‐
52 figuration files.
53 SGE_CELL If set, specifies the default Grid Engine cell. To
55 address a Grid Engine cell qdel uses (in the order of
56 precedence):
57 The name of the cell specified in the environment
59 variable SGE_CELL, if it is set.
60 The name of the default cell, i.e. default.
62 SGE_DEBUG_LEVEL
65 If set, specifies that debug information should be writ‐
66 ten to stderr. In addition the level of detail in which
67 debug information is generated is defined.
68 SGE_QMASTER_PORT
70 If set, specifies the tcp port on which sge_qmaster(8)
71 is expected to listen for communication requests. Most
72 installations will use a services map entry for the ser‐
73 vice "sge_qmaster" instead to define that port.
