Switching a single job to a different queue

Procedure

Run bswitch or bmod to move pending and running jobs from queue to queue. By default, LSF dispatches jobs in a queue in order of arrival, so a pending job goes to the last position of the new queue, no matter what its position was in the original queue.

In the following example, job 5309 is switched to the priority queue:

bswitch priority 5309
Job <5309> is switched to queue <priority>
bjobs -u all
JOBID    USER   STAT   QUEUE    FROM_HOST  EXEC_HOST   JOB_NAME   SUBMIT_TIME 
5308     user2   RUN   normal   hostA      hostD       /job500    Oct 23 10:16 
5309     user2   RUN   priority hostA      hostB       /job200    Oct 23 11:04 
5311     user2   PEND  night    hostA                  /job700    Oct 23 18:17 
5310     user1   PEND  night    hostB                  /myjob     Oct 23 13:45
