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
