Use qdel to delete all my jobs at once, not one at a time

Solution 1:

Found the answer buried in an old supercluster.org thread:

qselect -u <username> | xargs qdel

Worked flawlessly.

Building on what Gabriel answered:

qselect -u <username> | xargs qdel

qselect -u <username> -s <state> | xargs qdel

<state> would be R for running jobs only.

qselect will allow you to select job based on other criterias, like ressources asked (-l), destination queue (-q) ...

qdel -u <username>

will only work with SGE

sometimes a simple grep/cut can help too: qstat | grep $USER | cut -d. -f1 | xargs qdel

This way we can also grep on a particular keyword for the jobs and delete them.

Try

$ qdel {id1..id2}

So for example:

$ qdel {1148613..1148650}
