qmod - modify a Grid Engine queue and running job
qmod [options]
[wc_job_range_list|wc_queue_list]
Qmod enables users classified as owners (see
queue_conf(5) for details) of a workstation to modify the state of
Grid Engine queues for their machine as well as the state of their own jobs.
A manager/operator, or root, can execute qmod for any queue and job
in a cluster, but only from administrative hosts. Find additional
information concerning wc_queue_list and wc_job_list in
sge_types(5).
- -c
- --clear
- Note: Deprecated, may be removed in future release. Please use the
-cj or -cq switch instead.
Clears the error state of the specified jobs(s)/queue(s).
- -cj
- --clearjob
- Clears the error state of the specified jobs(s).
- -cq
- --clearqueue
- Clears the error state of the specified queue(s).
- -d
- --disable
- Disables the queue(s), i.e. no further jobs are dispatched to disabled
queues while jobs already executing in these queues are allowed to
finish.
- -e
- --enable
- Enables the queue(s).
- -f
- --force
- Force the modification action for the queue despite the apparent current
state of the queue. For example if a queue appears to be suspended but the
job execution seems to be continuing, the manager/operator can force a
suspend operation on the jobs. In any case, the queue or job status will
be set, even if the sge_execd(8) controlling the queues/jobs cannot
be reached. Requires manager/operator privileges.
- -help
- --help
- Prints a listing of all options.
- -r
- --reschedule
- Note: Deprecated, may be removed in future release. Please use the
-rj or -rq switch instead.
If applied to queues, reschedules all jobs currently running in this queue.
If applied to running jobs, reschedules the jobs. Requires root or manager
privileges. In order for a job to be rescheduled, it, or the queue in
which it is executing must have the rerun flag activated. (See -r option
in the qsub(1) man page and the rerun option in the
queue_conf(5) man page for more information.) Additional
restrictions apply for parallel and checkpointing jobs. (See the
reschedule_unknown description in the sge_conf(5) man page
for details).
- -rj
- --reschedulejob
- If applied to running jobs, reschedules the jobs. Requires root or manager
privileges.
- -rq
- --reschedulequeue
- Reschedules all jobs currently running in the specified queues. Requires
root or manager privileges.
- -s
- --suspend
- Note: Deprecated, may be removed in future release. Please use the
-sj or -sq switch instead.
If applied to queues, suspends the queues and any jobs which might be active
in them. If applied to running jobs, suspends the jobs.
- -sj
- --suspendjob
- If applied to running jobs, suspends the jobs. If a job is both suspended
explicitly and via suspension of its queue, a subsequent unsuspend of the
queue will not release the suspension state on the job.
- -sq
- --suspendqueue
- Suspends the specified queues and any jobs which might be active in
them.
- -us
- --unsuspend
- Note: Deprecated, may be removed in future release. Please use the
-usj or -usq switch instead.
If applied to queues, unsuspends the queues and any jobs which might be
active in them. If applied to jobs, unsuspends the jobs.
- -usj
- --unsuspendjob
- Unsuspends the specified jobs. If a job is both suspended explicitly and
via suspension of its queue, a subsequent unsuspend of the queue will not
release the suspension state on the job.
- -usq
- --unsuspendqueue
- Unsuspends the specified queues and any jobs which might be active in
them.
- SGE_ROOT
- Specifies the location of the Grid Engine standard configuration
files.
- SGE_CELL
- If set, specifies the default Grid Engine cell. To address a Grid Engine
cell qmod uses (in the order of precedence):
The name of the cell specified in the environment
variable SGE_CELL, if it is set.
The name of the default cell, i.e. default.
- SGE_DEBUG_LEVEL
- If set, specifies that debug information should be written to stderr. In
addition the level of detail in which debug information is generated is
defined.
- SGE_QMASTER_PORT
- If set, specifies the tcp port on which sge_qmaster(8) is expected
to listen for communication requests. Most installations will use a
services map entry for the service "sge_qmaster" instead to
define that port.
