<p dir="ltr">This is an SGE question rather than StarCluster related. I am actually having this issue on a local clyster. And I did raise thulis issue a while ago. So sorry for repetition. And if you know of another list that can help, please direct me there. </p>
<p dir="ltr">The qdel command does not respond well with a large number of jobs. More than 100k jobs makes things intollerable. </p>
<p dir="ltr">It takes a long time and consumes too much memory if trying to delete all jobs. </p>
<p dir="ltr">Is there a shortcut someone is aware of to clear the enite queue without waiting for many hours or the server running out of memory? </p>
<p dir="ltr">Will removing the StarCluser server and reinstalling it work? If so, how to bypass long configuration? Are there several files that can do the trick if handled properly? </p>
<p dir="ltr">I hope someone has a quick solution. </p><span class=""><font color="#888888">
