GLOBUS-JOB-CLEAN(1)						  GRAM5 Commands					       GLOBUS-JOB-CLEAN(1)

NAME

       globus-job-clean - Cancel and clean up a GRAM batch job

SYNOPSIS

       globus-job-clean [-r RESOURCE | -resource RESOURCE]
			[-f | -force] [-q | -quiet] JOBID

       globus-job-clean [-help] [-usage] [-version] [-versions]

DESCRIPTION

       The globus-job-clean program cancels the job named by JOBID if it is still running, and then removes any cached files on the GRAM service
       node related to that job. In order to do the file clean up, it submits a job which removes the cache files. By default this cleanup job is
       submitted to the default GRAM resource running on the same host as the job. This behavior can be controlled by specifying a resource
       manager contact string as the parameter to the -r or -resource option.

       By default, globus-job-clean prompts the user prior to canceling the job. This behavior can be overridden by specifying the -f or -force
       command-line options.

OPTIONS

       The full set of options to globus-job-clean are:

       -help, -usage
	   Display a help message to standard error and exit.

       -version
	   Display the software version of the globus-job-clean program to standard output.

       -version
	   Display the software version of the globus-job-clean program including DiRT information to standard output.

       -resource RESOURCE, -r RESOURCE
	   Submit the clean-up job to the resource named by RESOURCE instead of the default GRAM service on the same host as the job contact.

       -force, -f
	   Do not prompt to confirm job cancel and clean-up.

       -quiet, -q
	   Do not print diagnostics for succesful clean-up. Implies -f

ENVIRONMENT
