NAME

       qstop - stop pbs batch job processing at a destination

SYNOPSIS

       qstop destination ...

DESCRIPTION

       The  qstop  command  directs that a destination should stop processing batch jobs.  If the
       destination is a execution queue, the server will cease scheduling jobs that reside in the
       queue for execution.  If the destination is a routing queue, the server will cease routing
       jobs from that queue.

       In order to execute qstop, the user must have PBS Operation or Manager privilege.

OPERANDS

       The qstop command accepts one or more destination operands.  The operands are one of three
       forms:
            queue
            @server
            queue@server
       If  queue  is  specified, the request is to stop that queue at the default server.  If the
       @server form is given, the request is to stop all the queues at that server.   If  a  full
       destination  identifier, queue@server, is given, the request is to stop the named queue at
       the named server.

STANDARD ERROR

       The qstop 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 qstop command, the exit
       status will be a value of zero.

       If the qstop command fails to process any operand, the command exits with a value  greater
       than zero.
