.SH NAME
qstart \- start pbs batch job processing at a destination
.SH SYNOPSIS
qstart destination ...
.SH DESCRIPTION
The
.B qstart
command directs that a destination should process batch jobs.
If the destination is an execution queue, the server will begin
to schedule jobs that reside in the queue for execution.  If the
destination is a routing queue, the server will begin to route
jobs from that queue.
.LP
.if !\n(Pb .ig Ig
The qstart command sends a
.I "Manage"
request to the batch server specified by
.Ar destination .
The
.At started
queue attribute is set to TRUE.
.Ig
.LP
In order to execute qstart, the user must have PBS Operation or Manager
privilege.
.SH  OPERANDS
The qstart command accepts one or more
.Ar destination
operands.  The operands are one of three forms:
.RS 5
.Ty queue
.br
.Ty @server
.br
.Ty queue@server
.RE
If
.Ty queue
is specified, the request is to start that queue at the default server.
If the
.Ty @server
form is given, the request is to start all queues at that server.
If a full destination identifier,
.Ty queue@server ,
is given, the request is to start the named queue at the named server.
.SH STANDARD ERROR
The qstart
command will write a diagnostic message to standard error for
each error occurrence.
.SH EXIT STATUS
Upon successful processing of all the operands presented to the
qstart
command, the exit status will be a value of zero.
.LP
If the qstart command fails to process any operand, the
command exits with a value greater than zero.
