NAME

     rambo  - script to search and destroy  jobs  hiding  on  the
     network

SYNOPSIS

     rambo [ -nodes:nodes ] [ -maxp:maxp ]

DESCRIPTION

     rambo

     is a script file that allows the user to easily kill  remote
     jobs  on  the  network spawned by PCN, IKP or a clever shell
     script. The shell script does a remote login  on  each  data
     set,  runs  'ps',  parses  the  output, and if the number of
     processes are less than the maximum indicator,  kills  thems
     one after the other.

     Note that since rambo is a script file you can copy  it  and
     use it as a template to build your own favorite scripts.

     rambo gets both its data and  its  parameters  from  command
     line arguments.

  Command line arguments
     -nodes: nodes
          Enter the workstation nodes separated by ':'  to  indi-
          cate  the  nodes to be searched. For example the option
          -nodes:emepsw01:emepsw02:emespw04:emes01 would   search
          and kill jobs on workstations named emepsw01, emepsw02,
          emepsw04 and emes01 respectively. Syntax  identical  to
          that in routine sammig.

     -maxp maxp
          Enter the maximum number of  processes  to  be  killed.
          This  may prevent you from unintentionally killing win-
          dows on the remote machine opened  up  outside  PCN  or
          IKP.  (Default = 4, 2 from PCN, one for the rsh and the
          other for ps).
