NAME

qrls - release xxQS_NAMExx jobs from previous hold states

SYNTAX

qrls [-h {u | o | s},...] [-help] [-u user_list] [job/task_id_list]

DESCRIPTION

Qrls provides a means for a user/operator/manager to release so-called holds from one or more jobs pending to be scheduled for execution. As long as any type of hold is assigned to a job, the job is not eligible for scheduling.

Holds can be assigned to jobs with the qhold(1), qsub(1) or the qalter(1) command.

There are three different types of holds:

  • user: User holds can be assigned and removed by managers, operators and the owner of the jobs.
  • operator: Operator holds can be assigned and removed by managers and operators.
  • system: System holds can be assigned and removed by managers only.

If no hold type is specified with the -h option (see below) the user hold is assumed by default.

An alternate way to release holds is the qalter(1) command (see the -h option).

OPTIONS

-h {u | o | s},...

Releases a u(ser), o(perator) or s(system) hold or a combination thereof from one or more jobs.

-help

Prints a listing of all options.

-u username,...

Modifies the hold state of those jobs which were submitted by users specified in the list of usernames. Managers are allowed to use the qrls -u "\*" command to modify the hold state for jobs of all users.

If a user uses the -u switch, the user may specify an additional job/task_id_list.

job/task_id_list

Specified by the following form:

job_id[.task_range] [,job_id[.task_range],...]

If present, the task_range restricts the effect of the 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. Instead of job/task_id_list it is possible to use the keyword all to modify all jobs of the current user.
