Using and Administering

restart

Specifies whether LoadLeveler considers a job "restartable." The syntax is:

restart = yes|no

If restart=yes, which is the default, and the job is vacated from its executing machine before completing, the central manager requeues the job. It can start running again when a machine on which it can run becomes available. If restart=no, a vacated job is cancelled rather than requeued.

Note that this keyword is different from the restart state associated with checkpointing jobs. This state tells LoadLeveler to restart a job from an existing checkpoint file. (Checkpoint jobs are always considered "restartable.") For more information, see Set the Appropriate Environment Variables.
