I asked: ************************************************************************ I am seeing the case where a job with flags: Flags: PREEMPTEE
but with the non-requeue flag set when submitted (#PBS -r n) is not preempted when the preemptor comes along. It seems that because the job cannot be restarted, it is skipped as a suitable candidate. Apparently my users have found this as well! Is there a way to tell maui that you just don't care? And kill it off, just like I want it to be killed? ************************************************************************* and apparently this is indeed the case. Torque will not requeue a job marked as requeable. This is fine as this is up to Maui to deal with I suppose. But a user who willingly submits a job to a preemptable queue (class) better damn well be accepting of having that job killed! And so in ./moab/MPBSI.c, in the routine MPBSJobRequeue, when the failure is returned from Torque in pbs_rerunjob, I have added the code to call pbs_deljob which kills the job.
