Requeuing a Job Array
Chapter 25
Job Arrays
Use brequeue to requeue a job array. When the job is requeued, it is assigned
the PEND status and the job’s new position in the queue is after other jobs of
the same priority. You can requeue:
◆ Jobs in DONE job state
◆ Jobs EXIT job state
◆ All jobs regardless of job state in a job array.
◆ EXIT, RUN, DONE jobs to PSUSP state
◆ Jobs in RUN job state
brequeue is not supported across clusters.
Requeuing jobs in DONE state
Requeuing Jobs in EXIT state
To requeue DONE jobs use the -d option of brequeue. For example, the
command brequeue -J "myarray[1-10]" -d 123 requeues jobs with job
ID 123 and DONE status.
To requeue EXIT jobs use the -e option of brequeue. For example, the
command brequeue -J "myarray[1-10]" -e 123 requeues jobs with job
ID 123 and EXIT status.
Requeuing all jobs in an array regardless of job state
A submitted job array can have jobs that have different job states. To requeue
all the jobs in an array regardless of any job’s state, use the -a option of
brequeue. For example, the command brequeue -J "myarray[1-10]" -a
123 requeues all jobs in a job array with job ID 123 regardless of their job state.
Requeuing RUN jobs to PSUSP state
Requeuing jobs in RUN state
To requeue RUN jobs to PSUSP state, use the -H option of brequeue. For
example, the command brequeue -J "myarray[1-10]" -H 123 requeues
to PSUSP RUN status jobs with job ID 123.
To requeue RUN jobs use the -r option of brequeue. For example, the
command brequeue -J "myarray[1-10]" -r 123 requeues jobs with job
ID 123 and RUN status.
