Hi
Changing the -m/-M flags with qalter does work, but the changes do not take
effect for a running job.
The manpage says (for -m):
"Qalter allows changing this option even while the job executes.
The modification of the b option argument will only be in effect after a restart or
migration of the job, however."
I think the last sentence does apply for *all* option arguments (and also for
-M), does it?
The 'b' option determines if an email is sent when a job starts
execution. You can't retro-actively send an email at job start time,
after the job has actually stared.
I suppose that the altering '-m b' post-start will actually change
setting, but it looks as if the wording is to tell users users that they
shouldn't expect to see any difference in behavior until after a
restart/migration.
