PEGASUS-REMOVE(1)														 PEGASUS-REMOVE(1)

NAME

       pegasus-remove - removes a workflow that has been planned and submitted using pegasus-plan and pegasus-run

SYNOPSIS

       pegasus-remove [-d dagid] [-v] [rundir]

DESCRIPTION

       The pegasus-remove command remove a submitted/running workflow that has been planned and submitted using pegasus-plan and pegasus-run. The
       command can be invoked either in the planned directory with no options and arguments or just the full path to the run directory.

OPTIONS

       By default pegasus-remove does not require any options or arguments if invoked from within the planned workflow directory. If running the
       command outside the workflow directory then a full path to the workflow directory needs to be specified or the dagid of the workflow to be
       removed.

       pegasus-remove takes the following options:

       -d dagid, --dagid dagid
	   The workflow dagid to remove

       -v, --verbose
	   Raises debug level. Each invocation increase the level by 1.

       rundir
	   Is the full qualified path to the base directory containing the planned workflow DAG and submit files. This is optional if
	   pegasus-remove command is invoked from within the run directory.

RETURN VALUE

       If the workflow is removed successfully pegasus-remove returns with an exit code of 0. However, in case of error, a non-zero exit code
       indicates problems. An error message clearly marks the cause.

FILES

       The following files are opened:

       braindump
	   This file is located in the rundir. pegasus-remove uses this file to find out paths to several other files.

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES

       PATH
	   The path variable is used to locate binary for condor_rm.
