Name¶
condor_rm remove - jobs from the HTCondor queue
Synopsis¶
condor_rm [-help -version]
condor_rm[-debug] [-forcex] [-pool centralmanagerhostname[:portnumber]-name
scheddname][-addr "<a.b.c.d:port>"] cluster...
cluster.process... user... -constraint expression...
condor_rm[-debug] [-pool centralmanagerhostname[:portnumber]-name
scheddname][-addr "<a.b.c.d:port>"] -all
Description¶
condor_rmremoves one or more jobs from the HTCondor job queue. If the
-nameoption is specified, the named condor_scheddis targeted for processing.
Otherwise, the local condor_scheddis targeted. The jobs to be removed are
identified by one or more job identifiers, as described below. For any given
job, only the owner of the job or one of the queue super users (defined by the
QUEUE_SUPER_USERS macro) can remove the job.
When removing a grid job, the job may remain in the ``X'' state for a very long
time. This is normal, as HTCondor is attempting to communicate with the remote
scheduling system, ensuring that the job has been properly cleaned up. If it
takes too long, or in rare circumstances is never removed, the job may be
forced to leave the job queue by using the -forcexoption. This forcibly
removes jobs that are in the ``X'' state without attempting to finish any
clean up at the remote scheduler.
Options¶
-help
-
- Display usage information
-
-version
-
- Display version information
-
-pool centralmanagerhostname[:portnumber]
-
- Specify a pool by giving the central manager's host name and an optional
port number
-
-name scheddname
-
- Send the command to a machine identified by scheddname
-
-addr <a.b.c.d:port>
-
- Send the command to a machine located at
"<a.b.c.d:port>"
-
-debug
-
- Causes debugging information to be sent to stderr , based on the value of
the configuration variable TOOL_DEBUG
-
-forcex
-
- Force the immediate local removal of jobs in the 'X' state (only affects
jobs already being removed)
-
cluster
-
- Remove all jobs in the specified cluster
-
cluster.process
-
- Remove the specific job in the cluster
-
user
-
- Remove jobs belonging to specified user
-
-constraint expression
-
- Remove all jobs which match the job ClassAd expression constraint
-
-all
-
- Remove all the jobs in the queue
-
Use the -forcexargument with caution, as it will remove jobs from the local
queue immediately, but can orphan parts of the job that are running remotely
and have not yet been stopped or removed.
Examples¶
For a user to remove all their jobs that are not currently running:
% condor_rm -constraint 'JobStatus =!= 2'
Exit Status¶
condor_rmwill exit with a status value of 0 (zero) upon success, and it will
exit with the value 1 (one) upon failure.
