Kill an SGE job "already in deletion", as user
Is there a way that my users can kill their own jobs that are stuck in the dr state?
qstat -f <jobid>
as the user, returns
job <jobid> is already in deletion
yet when run as root it does get deleted
Solution 1:
If you have ENABLE_FORCED_QDEL set as part of qmaster_params in your cluster configuration (see the sge_conf(5) man page), then users can run qdel -f <jobid> to force deletion of their own jobs.
