I don't understand what you mean there. I have control over this? My tests
shows that if I call "kill -9" on the process, that's what happens, but in
qacct -j it appears more often than I did kill jobs. What else can cause it?

Ok this one comes from when an execution node goes away, the job is deleted
with qdel and this becomes the failed code.

I'm trying to reproduce the issue anyway I can think of. My best lead was
if Eqw disappears after a while  but if it doesn't, I have to look
somewhere else.
