Remove job or task object from cluster and memory
delete(obj)
delete(obj) removes the job or task object, obj,
from the local MATLAB session, and removes it from the cluster's JobStorageLocation.
When the object is deleted, references to it become invalid. Invalid
objects should be removed from the workspace with the clear command.
If multiple references to an object exist in the workspace, deleting
one reference to that object invalidates the remaining references
to it. These remaining references should be cleared from the workspace
with the clear command.
When you delete a job object, this also deletes all the task objects contained in that job. Any references to those task objects will also be invalid, and you should clear them from the workspace.
If obj is an array of objects and one of
the objects cannot be deleted, the other objects in the array are
deleted and a warning is returned.
Because its data is lost when you delete an object, delete should
be used only after you have retrieved all required output data from
the effected object.
Create a job object using the default profile, then delete the job:
myCluster = parcluster; j = createJob(myCluster,'Name','myjob'); t = createTask(j,@rand,1,{10}); delete(j); clear j t
Delete all jobs on the cluster identified by the profile myProfile:
myCluster = parcluster('myProfile');
delete(myCluster.Jobs)
