NAME
       qmgr - pbs batch	system manager

SYNOPSIS
       qmgr [-a] [-c command] [-e] [-n]	[-z] [server...]

DESCRIPTION
       The  qmgr command provides an administrator interface to	the batch sys-
       tem.

       The command reads directives from standard input.  The syntax  of  each
       directive  is  checked and the appropriate request is sent to the batch
       server or servers.

       The list	or print subcommands of	qmgr can be executed by	general	users.
       Creating	 or  deleting a	queue requries PBS Manager privilege.  Setting
       or unsetting server or queue attributes requires	PBS Operator  or  Man-
       ager privilege.

OPTIONS
       -a	   Abort qmgr on any syntax errors or any requests rejected by
		   a server.

       -c command  Execute a single command and	exit qmgr .

       -e	   Echo	all commands to	standard output.

       -n	   No commands are executed,  syntax  checking	only  is  per-
		   formed.

       -z	   No errors are written to standard error.

OPERANDS
       The  server operands identify the name of the batch server to which the
       administrator requests are sent.	 Each server conforms to the following
       syntax:
	   host_name[:port]
       where  host_name	is the network name of the host	on which the server is
       running and port	is the port number to which to connect.	  If  port  is
       not specified, the default port number is used.

       If  server is not specified, the	administrator requests are sent	to the
       local server.

STANDARD INPUT
       The qmgr	command	reads standard input for directives until end of  file
       is reached, or the exit or quit directive is read.

STANDARD OUTPUT
       If Standard Output is connected to a terminal, a	command	prompt will be
       written to standard output when qmgr is ready to	read a directive.

       If the -e option	is specified, qmgr will	echo the directives read  from
       standard	input to standard output.

STANDARD ERROR
       If  the -z option is not	specified, the qmgr command will write a diag-
       nostic message to standard error	for each error occurrence.

EXTENDED DESCRIPTION
       If qmgr is invoked without the -c option	and standard  output  is  con-
       nected  to  a terminal, qmgr will write a prompt	to standard output and
       read a directive	from standard input.

       Commands	can be abbreviated to their minimum unambiguous	form.  A  com-
       mand is terminated by a new line	character or a semicolon, ";", charac-
       ter.  Multiple commands may be entered on a single line.	 A command may
       extend  across  lines  by  escaping the new line	character with a back-
       slash "\".

       Comments	begin with the # character and continue	to end	of  the	 line.
       Comments	and blank lines	are ignored by qmgr.

DIRECTIVE SYNTAX
       A qmgr directive	is one of the following	forms:

       command server [names] [attr OP value[,attr OP value,...]]
       command queue [names] [attr OP value[,attr OP value,...]]
       command node [names] [attr OP value[,attr OP value,...]]

       Where,

       command	 is the	command	to perform on a	object.	 Commands are:

		 active	   sets	the active objects.  If	the active objects are
			   specified, and the name is not given	in a qmgr  cmd
			   the active object names will	be used.

		 create	   is  to  create  a new object, applies to queues and
			   nodes.

		 delete	   is to destroy an existing object, applies to	queues
			   and nodes.

		 set	   is  to  define or alter attribute values of the ob-
			   ject.

		 unset	   is to clear the value of attributes of the  object.
			   Note,  this	form  does not accept an OP and	value,
			   only	the attribute name.

		 list	   is to list the current  attributes  and  associated
			   values of the object.

		 print	   is  to print	all the	queue and server attributes in
			   a format that will be usable	as input to  the  qmgr
			   command.

       names	 is  a	list of	one or more names of specific objects The name
		 list is in the	form:
		   [name][@server][,queue_name[@server]...]
		 with no intervening white space.  The name of	an  object  is
		 declared  when	 the  object is	first created.	If the name is
		 @server, then all the objects of specified type at the	server
		 will be effected.

       attr	 specifies  the	name of	an attribute of	the object which is to
		 be set	or modified.  If the attribute is one which consist of
		 a  set	 of  resources,	then the attribute is specified	in the
		 form:
		   attribute_name.resource_name

       OP	 operation to be performed with	the attribute and its value:

		 =	set the	value of the attribute.	 If the	attribute  has
			a  existing  value, the	current	value is replaced with
			the new	value.

		 +=	increase the current value of  the  attribute  by  the
			amount in the new value.

		 -=	decrease  the  current	value  of the attribute	by the
			amount in the new value.

       value	 the value to assign to	an attribute.  If the  value  includes
		 white	space, commas or other special characters, such	as the
		 # character, the value	string must be inclosed	in quote marks
		 (").

       The following are examples of qmgr directives:

       create queue fast priority=10,queue_type=e,enabled = true,max_running=0
       set queue fast max_running +=2
       create queue little
       set queue little	resources_max.mem=8mw,resources_max.cput=10
       unset queue fast	max_running
       set node	state =	down,offline
       active server s1,s2,s3
       list queue @server1
       set queue max_running = 10    - uses active queues

EXIT STATUS
       Upon  successful	 processing  of	all the	operands presented to the qmgr
       command,	the exit status	will be	a value	of zero.

       If the qmgr command fails to process any	 operand,  the	command	 exits
       with a value greater than zero.
