/entry or -entry=number
The ENTRY qualifier selects a particular entry in a scheduling queue.

/restart or -restart=number
The RESTART qualifier will modify the number of allowed restarts for the specified entry in the scheduling queues.
/set_id or -set_id=number
The SET_ID qualifier points to a designated job set. If no number is specified the default implies all job sets.

The SET_PARAMETER qualifier specifies information to be passed from one job to another inside a set of jobs.
/set_tag or -set_tag="string"
The SET_TAG qualifier also specifies information to be passed from one job to another inside a set of jobs.
