(Rerun a batch job)
Synopsis
qrerun [{-f}] <JOBID>[ <JOBID>] ...
Description
The qrerun command directs that the specified jobs are to be rerun if possible. To rerun a job is to terminate the session leader of the job and return the job to the queued state in the execution queue in which the job currently resides.
If a job is marked as not rerunable then the rerun request will fail for that job. If the mini-server running the job is down, or it rejects the request, the Rerun Job batch request will return a failure unless -f is used.
Using -f violates IEEE Batch Processing Services Standard and should be handled with great care. It should only be used under exceptional circumstances. The best practice is to fix the problem mini-server host and let qrerun run normally. The nodes may need manual cleaning (see the -r option on the qsub and qalter commands).
Options
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
| -f | Force a rerun on a job |

Operands
The qrerun command accepts one or more job_identifier operands of the form:
sequence_number[.server_name][@server]
Standard error
The qrerun command will write a diagnostic message to standard error for each error occurrence.
Exit status
Upon successful processing of all the operands presented to the qrerun command, the exit status will be a value of zero.
If the qrerun command fails to process any operand, the command exits with a value greater than zero.
