NAME

       qrdel - delete Grid Engine Advance Reservations (AR)

SYNTAX

       qrdel [-f] [-help] [-u wc_user_list] wc_ar_list

DESCRIPTION

       Qrdel  provides  a  means  for  a  user/operator/manager  to  delete  one  or more Advance
       Reservations (AR) referenced by numeric id or name.  A  manager/operator  can  delete  ARs
       belonging  to  any  user, while regular users can only delete their own ARs.  If a manager
       wants to delete another user's AR, the manager can specify the AR id.  By default,  "qrdel
       wc_ar_name"  will  delete only the ARs belonging to that user. A manager is able to delete
       another user's AR via "-u wc_user_list".  Jobs referring to an AR tagged for deletion will
       also  be  removed.   Only  if all jobs referring to an AR are removed from the Grid Engine
       database will the AR also be removed.  Qrdel deletes ARs in the  order  in  which  the  AR
       identifiers  are  presented.  Find  additional  information  concerning  wc_user_list  and
       wc_ar_list in sge_types(5).

OPTIONS

       -f     Force action. The AR and the jobs using the AR are deleted  from  the  Grid  Engine
              queuing system even if the sge_execd(8) controlling the AR jobs does not respond to
              the delete request sent by the sge_qmaster(8).
              Users who have with neither Grid Engine manager nor operator status  can  only  use
              the -f option for their own ARs.

       -help  Prints a list of all options.

       -u wc_user_list
              Deletes  only  those  ARs  which  were  submitted by users specified in the list of
              usernames.  For managers, it is possible to use qrdel -u "*" to delete all ARs  for
              all  users.   To delete a specific AR for a user, a manager has to specify the user
              and the AR id. If no AR is specified, all ARs belonging to that user are deleted.

       wc_ar_list
              A list of ARs that should be deleted (either numeric or names assigned  with  qrsub
              -N).

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES

       SGE_ROOT       Specifies the location of the Grid Engine standard configuration files.

       SGE_CELL       If  set,  specifies  the default Grid Engine cell. To address a Grid Engine
                      cell qrdel uses (in the order of precedence):

                             The name of the cell specified in the environment variable SGE_CELL,
                             if it is set.

                             The name of the default cell, i.e. default.

       SGE_DEBUG_LEVEL
                      If  set,  specifies  that debug information should be written to stderr. In
                      addition the level of detail in which debug  information  is  generated  is
                      defined.

       SGE_QMASTER_PORT
                      If  set,  specifies the tcp port on which the sge_qmaster(8) is expected to
                      listen for communication requests.  Most installations will use  a  service
                      map entry for the service "sge_qmaster" instead of defining the port.
