job ...
- list of jobids and/or jobnames
The
arckill command kills a running job on an ARC enabled resource. The
job can be referred to either by the jobid that was returned by
arcsub(1) at submission time or by its jobname if the job description
that was submitted contained a jobname attribute.
More than one jobid and/or jobname can be given. If several jobs were submitted
with the same jobname all those jobs are killed. If the
--joblist
option is used the list of jobs is read from a file with the specified
filename. By specifying the
--all option, all jobs can be killed.
The
--cluster option can be used to select or reject jobs at specific
clusters. See
arcsub(1) for a discussion of the format of arguments to
this option. The
--status option can be used to select jobs in a
specific state. These options can be repeated several times. See
arstat(1) for possible state values.
If the job was successfully killed the attepmt to remove the job from the remote
cluster will be made unless the
--keep option was specified. Depending
on functionality of service job killing procedure may take time and it may be
impossible to clean job immediately. In that case
arckill will report
number of cleaned jobs smaller than processed ones. Cleaning of leftover jobs
may be performed by running
arcclean later.
- ~/.arc/client.conf
- Some options can be given default values by specifying them
in the ARC client configuration file. By using the --conffile
option a different configuration file can be used than the default.
- ~/.arc/jobs.xml
- This a local list of the user's active jobs. When a job is
successfully submitted it is added to this list and when it is removed
from the remote cluster it is removed from this list. This list is used as
the list of all active jobs when the user specifies the --all
option to the various NorduGrid ARC user interface commands. By using the
--joblist option a different file can be used than the default.
- X509_USER_PROXY
- The location of the user's Grid proxy file. Shouldn't be
set unless the proxy is in a non-standard location.
- ARC_LOCATION
- The location where ARC is installed can be specified by
this variable. If not specified the install location will be determined
from the path to the command being executed, and if this fails a WARNING
will be given stating the location which will be used.
- ARC_PLUGIN_PATH
- The location of ARC plugins can be specified by this
variable. Multiple locations can be specified by separating them by : (;
in Windows). The default location is $ARC_LOCATION/lib/arc (\ in
Windows).
