Requeue a Job or Task
Updated: May 20, 2009
Applies To: Windows HPC Server 2008
Requeuing a job or task inserts it back into the job queue. To requeue a job or a task, you must be the submitting user or have administrative rights. You can requeue, Canceled, and, in some cases, Failed jobs or tasks.
Guidelines for requeuing jobs and tasks:
- Requeuing a job requeues any unfinished tasks in the job.
- When you requeue a task, the job that contains the task must be Running. Otherwise, the job itself must be requeued in order to rerun the task.
-
Finished jobs and tasks cannot be requeued. You can make a copy of a Finished job or task to run it again. For more information, see Copy a Job or Task.

Requeuing a job
-
In the Navigation Pane, click My Jobs.
-
In the job list, click the job or jobs that you want to requeue.
-
Right-click your selection and click Requeue Job.
Requeuing a task
-
In the Navigation Pane, click My Jobs.

Additional considerations
-
By default, the Job Scheduler service automatically requeues a job or task that fails because of a system failure, such as a node reboot. If you do not want tasks within the job to be requeued automatically, set the task property Rerunnable to false.
