Job Cancellation

Deleting a job

To cancel a job, use scancel. You need the running or pending jobid. It is only the job's owner and SLURM administrators that can cancel jobs.
$ scancel <jobid>

To cancel all your jobs (running and pending) you can run

$ scancel -u <username>

You get the job id when you submit the job.

$ sbatch -N 1 -n 4 submitfile
Submitted batch job 173079
$ scancel 173079

Or through squeue
