Re: [gridengine users] Removing 1.4 BILLION tasks job array

Correction.   1 TRILLION   :-) On 8/7/2019 4:40 PM, Joseph Farran wrote: Howdy. A user accidentally submitted a 1.4 BILLION job array on our HPC cluster.    How can I remove it? I cannot qdel the job nor can I qhold the job because it crashes SGE.   I can restart SGE just fine but the job remains. I removed the SGE job script itself from /var/spool/sge/job_scripts and restarted SGE, job remains. The only thing I can do is remove tasks a time either one at a time or in groups which works but at 1.4 BILLION tasks, that will take a while. Added max_aj_task to SGE to prevent this in the future. # qconf -sconf|grep tasks max_aj_tasks                 100000 Any help appreciated.
