qhold - hold back Grid Engine jobs from execution
qhold [-h {u|o|s},...] [-help] [job/task_id_list]
qhold [-h {u|o|s},...] [-help] -u user_list
Qhold provides a means for a user/operator/manager to place so called holds on one or more jobs pending scheduling for execution. As long as any type of hold is assigned to a job, the job is not eligible for scheduling.
Holds can be removed with the qrls(1) or qalter(1) command.
There are three different types of holds:
If no hold type is specified with the -h option (see below) the user hold is assumed by default.
An alternate way to assign holds to jobs is the qsub(1) or the qalter(1) command (see the -h option).
If a user uses the -u switch, the user may specify an additional job/task_id_list.
job_id[.task_range][,job_id[.task_range],...]
If present, the task_range restricts the effect of the qhold operation to the array job task range specified as suffix to the job id (see the -t option to qsub(1) for further details on array jobs).
The task range specifier has the form n[-m[:s]]. The range may be a single number, a simple range of the form n-m or a range with a step size s.
Instead of job/task_id_list it is possible to use the keyword 'all' to modify the hold state for all jobs of the current user.
The name of the default cell, i.e. default.
