Absolutely, which we do, however it is difficult to simulate all the
possible job failures/ending/cancellations in 2 minutes or at all for
some things.
So we post on the forums both to see if this has been found out and to
draw attention to the fact that the documentation could be improved by
adding a bit of clarification.

Hi,
I had asked a similar question recently (maybe a year ago) and also
got crickets. I think in our case we were not able to ensure that the
epilog always ran for different types of job failures, so we just had
the users add some more cleanup code to the end of their jobs _and_
also run separate cleanup jobs.
Regards,
Alex

Quick question:
Is the epilogue script run if a job exceeds its time limits and is
being
canceled?
What about just cancelled?
I need to be able to clean up some job-specific files regardless
of how
the job ends and I'm not sure epilogue is sufficient.
