Synopsis

Description

condor_ release releases jobs from the Condor job queue that were previously placed in hold state. If the -name option is specified, the named condor_ schedd is targeted for processing. Otherwise, the local condor_ schedd is targeted. The jobs to be released are identified by one or more job identifiers, as described below. For any given job, only the owner of the job or one of the queue super users (defined by the QUEUE_SUPER_USERS macro) can release the job.

General Remarks

When releasing a held PVM universe job, you must release the entire job cluster. (In the PVM universe, each PVM job is assigned its own cluster number, and each machine class is assigned a ``process'' number in the job's cluster.) Releasing a subset of the machine classes for a PVM job is not supported.

Examples

To release all of the jobs of a user named Mary:

% condor_release Mary 

Exit Status

condor_ release will exit with a status value of 0 (zero) upon success, and it will exit with the value 1 (one) upon failure.
