NAME

       qrls - release Grid Engine jobs from previous hold states

SYNTAX

       qrls [ -h {u|o|s},...  ] [ -help ] [ job/task_id_list ]

       qrls [ -h {u|o|s},...  ] [ -help ] -u user_list

DESCRIPTION

       Qrls  provides  a  means  for  a  user/operator/manager  to release so called holds from one or more jobs
       pending to be scheduled for execution.  As long as any type of hold is assigned to a job, the job is  not
       eligible for scheduling.

       Holds can be assigned to jobs with the qhold(1), qsub(1) or the qalter(1) command.

       There are three different types of holds:

       user   User holds can be assigned and removed by managers, operators and the owner of the jobs.

       operator
              Operator holds can be assigned and removed by managers and operators.

       system System holds can be assigned and removed by managers only.

       If no hold type is specified with the -h option (see below) the user hold is assumed by default.

       An alternate way to release holds is the qalter(1) command (see the -h option).

OPTIONS

       -h {u|o|s},...
              Releases a u(ser), o(perator) or s(system) hold or a combination thereof from one or more jobs.

       -help  Prints a listing of all options.

       -u username,...
              Modifies  the  hold  state  of  those  jobs which were submitted by users specified in the list of
              usernames.  Managers are allowed to use the qrls -u "*" command to modify the hold state for  jobs
              of all users.

              If a user uses the -u switch, the user may specify an additional job/task_id_list.

       job/task_id_list
              Specified by the following form:

                  job_id[.task_range][,job_id[.task_range],...]

              If  present,  the  task_range  restricts  the  effect of the operation to the array job task range
              specified as suffix to the job id (see the -t option to  qsub(1)  for  further  details  on  array
              jobs).

              The task range specifier has the form n[-m[:s]]. The range may be a single number, a  simple range
              of the form n-m or a range with a step size.

              Instead of job/task_id_list it is possible to use the keyword 'all' to  modify  all  jobs  of  the
              current user.

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 qrls 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  sge_qmaster(8)  is  expected to listen for
                      communication requests.  Most installations will use a services map entry for the  service
                      "sge_qmaster" instead to define that port.
