Cancel jobs

To cancel a submitted job (simulation/experiment/suite) on the SLURM cluster you must use the scancel SLURM command from a terminal session connected to the SLURM cluster. idmtools submits jobs as job arrays. The job id of the job array is used with scancel for cancelling jobs. For more information about scancel, see https://slurm.schedmd.com/scancel.html.

View jobs in queue

To view the job id associated with the job array use the squeue command:

squeue

For more information about squeue, see https://slurm.schedmd.com/squeue.html.

Cancel a specific job

To cancel a specific job from the job array specify the job id of the job array and index number:

scancel job-id-number-and-index-number-here

Cancel all jobs

To cancel all jobs within the job array only specify the job id of the job array:

scancel job-id-number-only-here
