qrls.1

NAME

       qrls - release Grid Engine jobs from previous hold states

SYNTAX

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

       qrls [ -h {u|o|s},...  ] [ -help ] -u user_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.

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES

       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 qrls 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.
