Description
Used to "shrink" the number of job instances running, without throwing away work performed.
qretire will request a job instance to release it host, and then go prematurely to "complete" state, even if there are pending agenda items. This command depends upon the job type and will only work if the job that is running supports a qube agenda based system.
