Something like this:
--halt now,fail,25% (aka --halt 2,25%)
--halt soon,success,50% (aka --halt -1,50%)
--halt soon,fail (aka --halt 1)
--halt never (aka --halt 0)
--halt soon,success,10 (I just need 10 to complete succcessfully)
--halt when[,why][,pct][,num]
when,why:
never,fail:
0: Do not halt if a job fails. Exit status will be the
number of jobs failed. This is the default.
never,success:
Do not halt if a job succeeds. Exit status will be
the number of jobs succeeded.
soon,fail:
1: Do not start new jobs if a job fails, but complete
the running jobs including cleanup. The exit status will be the exit
status from the last failing job.
soon,success:
-1: Do not start new jobs if a job succeeds, but complete
the running jobs including cleanup. The exit status will be the exit
status from the last failing job (if any)
now,fail:
2: Kill off all jobs immediately when a job fails and
exit without cleanup. The exit status will be the exit status from the
failing job.
now,success:
-2: Kill off all jobs immediately when a job succeeds
and exit without cleanup. The exit status will be the exit status from
the last failing job (if any).
'when' defaults to never. 'why' defaults to fail.
num:
>=3: Do not look at a single job but at this number of jobs
before halting.
pct:
0%: Only look at a single job. This is the default.
1-99%: Do not look at a single job but at a percentage of all
jobs before halting. At least 3 jobs will always be run.
