NAME

       qrdel - delete Sun 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). A manager/operator can delete  ARs  belonging  to  any  user,  while  a
       regular  user  can  only  delete his or her 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 Sun 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(1).

OPTIONS

       -f     Force action for AR. The AR and the jobs using the AR are deleted from the Sun 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  which  have neither Sun 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. If a manager wants to delete a specific AR for a user, he 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 AR id's that should be deleted

ENVIRONMENTAL VARIABLES

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

       SGE_CELL       If set, specifies the default Sun Grid Engine cell. To address a  Sun  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.
