How do I requeue a Job using the Microsoft.Hpc.Scheduler API? RRS feed

  • Question

  • I'm trying to cancel and then re-queue a Job using the following code...

    MyScheduler.CancelJob(jobId, "Canceling to allow higher priority job to run, this job will be re-queued. ");
    var job = MyScheduler.OpenJob(jobId);
    MyScheduler.SubmitJob(job, Username, Password);

    This generates an exception with the message, "The job could not be submitted because it is not in the configuring state.  To restart a Canceled or Failed job, use the "job requeue" command.  To create a new job that is based on a Finished or Running job use the "job clone" command". 

    Where is the job re-queue command in the Microsoft.Hpc.Scheduler API? Is there any way to requeue 'in code' or do I have to either...

    1. Make a REST API call (as detailed here). Or,
    2. Make a command-line call (as detailed here)

    Many thanks in advance, Matt.

  • There is no one API call for requeue, you have to move the job to configure before submit.

    Thus, please try ConfigureJob first and then SubmiJob

  • Is there a restful API for ConfigureJob?

  • I tried the requeue job API for REST on HPC 2012 R2 but it gave an error message:

    The remote server returned an error: (405) Method Not Allowed.

    The job to be requeued was in "Failed" state. What else needs to be done in order for the job to be requeued using REST API?
