ws_extend - Extend Workspace Lifetime
Extend the lifetime of an existing workspace before it expires.
Basic Usage
$ ws_extend myWs 30 # Extend by 30 days from now
Alternative:
$ ws_allocate -x myWs 30 # Same result
Important: Each extension consumes one of your available extensions. See Cluster-Specific Workspace Limits.
Extend Group Workspace
Group members can extend group-writable workspaces (created with -G):
$ ws_allocate -x -u alice projectWs 30 # Extend Alice's workspace by 30 days
Useful when the workspace owner is unavailable. May not work on all clusters.
Options
- -F <filesystem> - Extend workspace on specific filesystem
For more information: ws_extend -h or man ws_extend
