miserkill(1) miserkill(1)
NAME
miser_kill - kill a miser job
SYNOPSIS
miserkill -j bid
DESCRIPTION
The miser_kill command is used to terminate a miser job. The command
sends a SIGKILL to the job and contacts miser(1) in order to free the
currently committed resources. The job itself will not exit until it is
runs. In some cases this will not be until the original start time
provided by miser (for example, if it is STATIC (see miser_submit(1))).
The resources, however, become available immediately.
A job that is killed using other mechanisms, will not inform miser of the
action, until the job actually gets to run and thus committed resources
are not freed.
RESTRICTIONS
Only a user with permissions to actually kill the job may execute this
command.
