NAME
     qdel - delete a job from the queue system 'fair que'

SYNOPSIS
     qdel [-q queue] jobid

DESCRIPTION
     The qdel utility cancels a batch job that was previously
     submitted to the queue system 'fair que' using the qsub
     command. If the job is still awaiting execution, the job is
     simply removed from the list of waiting jobs. Otherwise a
     job termination request is sent to the queue system, and the
     job will then be killed within a minute.

OPTIONS
     -q queue    Delete job within the specified queue. If this
                 flag is not present, the contents of the QUEUE
                 environment variable is used instead. If QUEUE
                 is undefined, the default queue is chosen.

OPERANDS
     The following operand is supported:

     jobid       The job id of the job to be deleted. This integer
                 number was returned by qsub when the job was
                 submitted.

EXAMPLES
     The command

       example% qdel 143

     removes the job with jobid 143 from the queue system.

SEE ALSO
     qsub, qshow

NOTES
     You may only delete your own jobs. If the job is running,
     accounting will be registered as if the job terminated 
     normally just after you run qdel.
