Using and Administering

Placing and Releasing a Hold on a Job

You may place a hold on a job and thereby cause the job to remain in the queue until you release it.

There are two types of holds: a user hold and a system hold. Both you and your LoadLeveler administrator can place and release a user hold on a job. Only a LoadLeveler administrator, however, can place and release a system hold on a job.

You can place a hold on a job or release the hold either by using the GUI or the llhold command. For examples of holding and releasing jobs, see Step 6: Hold a Job and Step 7: Release a Hold on a Job.

As a user or an administrator, you can also use the startdate keyword described in startdate to place a hold on a job. This keyword allows you to specify when you want to run a job.
