I don't know how to cancel job

Question

I'm running some simulation by using the Linux cluster but I have some problem in my job.

I want to cancel any job(ID : 750, 752, 753 name : gib) but I don't know how to cancel this job.

Enclosed file is my job screen. enter image description here

How to kill a jobs by its job id?

Which job control software is the cluster using? Google for `qstat` suggests it might be Sun Grid (then Oracle Grid, now Univa Grid) or Open Grid (a fork of that). — derobert, Aug 06 '14 at 12:05
[qstat](http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/000095399/utilities/qstat.html), [qdel](http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/000095399/utilities/qdel.html)... lizardite - amazing ore! — , Aug 06 '14 at 12:08

You can kill a qstat process using the qdel command:

qdel *ID*

so in your case:

qdel 750

If it won't die, you can force kill using -f option:

qdel -f 750

This is why I love this site. No question can be submitted that _someone_ won't know how to answer. – Bratchley Aug 06 '14 at 12:32
This works though I got 'option "f" not found' adding -f to force killing the job. – Hamid Heydarian Jun 21 '19 at 12:43

How a slurm manager command ( `scancel` ) is related to the POSIX batch queues? – grochmal Nov 09 '16 at 21:37
