Stop-HpcJob [-Message <string>] [-Scheduler <string>] [-Id] <int[]> [-confirm] [-whatif] [<CommonParameters>] Stop-HpcJob [-Message <string>] [-Scheduler <string>] -Job <HpcJob[]> [-confirm] [-whatif] [<CommonParameters>]
Detailed Description
Cancels one or more specified jobs. You can use specify the job by using either the identifiers or HpcJob objects for the jobs. You can also specify the cluster that contains the jobs that you want to cancel, and an error message to explain why you canceled the jobs.
When you cancel a job, the job scheduler removes the job from the job queue if the job is waiting to run. If the job is running, the scheduler stops the tasks that are running and frees the resources they were using for allocation to another job.
Only an administrator or the owner of the job can cancel a job.
Parameters
-Id <int[]>
Specifies a list of identifiers for the jobs that you want to cancel. Specify either the Id parameter or the Job parameter, but not both.
