11.3 Suspend/Resume Handling

When supported by the Resource Manager, Moab can suspend and resume jobs. By default, a job is suspended for one minute before it can resume. You can modify this default time using the MINADMINSTIME parameter.

Moab also supports both manual and automatic job preemption, topics covered in greater detail in the following sections:

• manual preemption with the mjobctl command
• QoS based job preemption
• Preemption based backfill
