I do qstat -f -j job# and there is a line in the output that shows the reason
for the error.  Man on qstat also shows "-explain E" but it seems to do the same
thing as qstat -f -j job#.  

Usually the errors I see don't make sense.  Like, "cannot chdir to
/home/user'sdir...no such file or dir", when "cluster-fork ls -l /home/user'sdir
| wc" returns the expected output for each node (there is obviously a dir).

I clear the errors with "qmod -cj job#".  There's supposed to be a wild-card
option (so, clear error for ALL of a users jobs, but I can't figure out how to
use it.  I usually use a script like:

#!/bin/sh
for ((i=starting_job_number; i < ending_job_number; i++));
do
qmod -cj $i  
done

Subject: [Rocks-Discuss]Nodes in 'E' state

Hello,

What does it mean when a node is in 'E' (error) state. And how do i get the
nodes out of that state?


Thank you
