I have a job that was started from  node4, and node4 has gone off line 
with disk errors.  The job ran on node12 and wants to write the final 
output file via node4, but that node is unavailable and the job sits in 
exiting state.  The cluster is running  torque-1.2.0p2 and maui-3.2.6p11.

Job id           Name             User             Time Use S Queue
---------------- ---------------- ---------------- -------- - -----
4351.curie       amberDNA_md11    hinkle           54:03:16 E long

Qdel fails and -p option is not available in this release..

[root at curie ~]# qdel 4351
qdel: Request invalid for state of job 4351.curie.chem.hope.edu
[root at curie ~]# qdel -p 4351
qdel: invalid option -- p
usage: qdel [-W delay] job_identifier...

I tried canceljob ...

[root at curie ~]# canceljob 4351
ERROR:  cannot cancel job '4351'


How can I force this job out of the queues?

Thanks!
Paul
