Name
       condor_qedit modify - job attributes

Synopsis
       condor_qedit  [-debug] [-n schedd-name] [-pool pool-name] {cluster | cluster.proc | owner | -constraint constraint}attribute-nameattribute-
       value...

Description
       condor_qeditmodifies job ClassAd attributes of queued Condor jobs. The jobs are specified either by cluster number, job ID, owner, or by  a
       ClassAd	constraint  expression.  The attribute-valuemay be any ClassAd expression. String expressions must be surrounded by double quotes.
       Multiple attribute value pairs may be listed on the same command line.

       To ensure security and correctness, condor_qeditwill not allow modification of the following ClassAd attributes:

	  *  Owner

	  *  ClusterId

	  *  ProcId

	  *  MyType

	  *  TargetType

	  *  JobStatus

       Since  JobStatus may not be changed with condor_qedit, use condor_holdto place a job in the hold state, and use condor_releaseto release  a
       held job, instead of attempting to modify  JobStatus directly.

       If  a job is currently running, modified attributes for that job will not affect the job until it restarts. As an example, for  PeriodicRe-
       move to affect when a currently running job will be removed from the queue, that job must first be evicted from a machine and  returned	to
       the queue. The same is true for other periodic expressions, such as  PeriodicHold and  PeriodicRelease .

Options
       -debug

	  Causes debugging information to be sent to  stderr , based on the value of the configuration variable  TOOL_DEBUG

       -n schedd-name

	  Modify job attributes in the queue of the specified schedd

       -pool pool-name

	  Modify job attributes in the queue of the schedd specified in the specified pool

Examples
       % condor_qedit  -name north.cs.wisc.edu -pool condor.cs.wisc.edu 249.0 answer 42
       Set attribute "answer".
       % condor_qedit  -name perdita 1849.0 In '"myinput"'
       Set attribute "In".
       % condor_qedit  jbasney NiceUser TRUE
       Set attribute "NiceUser".
       %  condor_qedit	 -constraint  'JobUniverse  == 1' Requirements '(Arch == "INTEL") && (OpSys == "SOLARIS26") && (Disk >= ExecutableSize) &&
       (VirtualMemory >= ImageSize)'
       Set attribute "Requirements".

General Remarks
       A job's ClassAd attributes may be viewed with

	condor_q -long

Exit Status
       condor_qeditwill exit with a status value of 0 (zero) upon success, and it will exit with the value 1 (one) upon failure.
