Re: [Condor-users] How do I stop a preemption claim once it's been started?

[Dan Bradley <dan@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Ian,

I think you already know this, but in case you don't, the schedd should 
automatically timeout on the claim and get a new one.  The default 
timeout is 30 minutes (REQUEST_CLAIM_TIMEOUT).

If you want to force an immediate retry, your idea of putting the job on 
hold might work, but I haven't yet been able to spot the place in the 
code where the match is actually deleted in this case...
