## Cluster functions helper: Kill a batch job via OS command

### Description

This function is only intended for use in your own cluster functions implementation.

Calls the OS command to kill a job via `system` like this: “cmd batch.job.id”. If the command returns an exit code > 0, the command is repeated after a 1 second sleep `max.tries-1` times. If the command failed in all tries, an exception is generated.

### Usage

    cfKillBatchJob(cmd, batch.job.id, max.tries = 3L)

### Arguments

`cmd` | [`character(1)`] OS command, e.g. “qdel”.
`batch.job.id` | [`character(1)`] Id of the batch job on the batch system.
`max.tries` | [`integer(1)`] Number of total times to try execute the OS command in cases of failures. Default is `3`.

### Value

Nothing.
