Jobs cannot be suspends. Jobs cannot be resumed. They must be started again, from the beginning. Ideally, running jobs should be canceled, but a shutdown of the system should have ill effects on a running job. -- Dan Langille - http://langille.org/ Thanks Dan, so if there is a job running, and a couple more waiting to run, and you need to shut down the computer, you should cancel all of the jobs? And by starting again, from the beginning, you mean run by hand? You can't actually do anything with a job that has been canceled, right, you have to click run, choose your options, and get a new jobid? thanks, maria ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Download Intel® Parallel Studio Eval Try the new software tools for yourself.
