If there is an exact match based on the provided job ID or prefix, then 22 the job will be cancelled. Otherwise, a list of matching jobs and information 23 will be displayed. 24 25 Upon successful deregistration, an interactive monitor session will start to 26 display log lines as the job unwinds its allocations and completes shutting 27 down. The monitor will exit once all allocations are stopped and the job has 28 reached a terminal state. It is safe to exit the monitor early using ctrl+c. 29 30 ## General Options 31 32 <%= general_options_usage %> 33 34 ## Stop Options 35 36 * `-detach`: Return immediately instead of entering monitor mode. After the 37 deregister command is submitted, a new evaluation ID is printed to the screen, 38 which can be used to examine the evaluation using the 39 [eval-status](/docs/commands/eval-status.html) command. 40 41 ## Status Options 42 43 * `-verbose`: Show full information. 44 45 ## Examples 46 47 Stop the job with ID "job1": 48 49 ``` 50 $ nomad stop job1 51 ==> Monitoring evaluation "43bfe672" 52 Evaluation status changed: "pending" -> "complete" 53 ==> Evaluation "43bfe672" finished with status "complete" 54 ``` 55 56 Stop the job with ID "job1" and return immediately: 57 58 ``` 59 $ nomad stop -detach job1 60 507d26cb 61 ```
