Q. Why can't I cancel a RUNNING job ?

A. It can't be cancelled because the infrastructure of the server does not allow it.

Q. What does "N/A" mean?

A. It means "Not Applicable" yet. For instance, when a job is QUEUED, the start and running time is not applicable yet, thus, they are stated as "N/A".

Q. My job is RUNNING, but why the running time is stated as "N/A" ?

A. Please wait for a while until the server process the running time for the job. This process is not immediate. In average, running time should be updated in a couple of minutes.

Q. Why can't I delete a file or folder ?

A. You cannot delete any file or folder if you have a job in queue or when you have a running job. This is to prevent a potential error that the running algorithm may get when it requires the deleted file.

Q. What does "Number of virtual processor per node" in the server info mean ?

A. It shows the number of jobs that can be executed in parallel on that node.

Q. What are the files that ends with .sh, .o, .out, .e and .err for ?

A. .sh file is the bash generated script from KDCompute. This script is executed by the queuing server to run the algorithm. The other 2 files (ending with .o/.out and .e/.err) are generated from our queuing server for debugging purposes. Algorithms may output the messages onto stdout (standard output) OR stderr (standard error) and these information are stored in .o/.out and .e/.err files respectively.
