• Parallel MPI jobs can require 2 "bkill" commands issued within 5 seconds
• If a job doesn't respond to the above, execute "bjobs -w" and look at find the name of the first node in the list.  ssh to that node and  Then execute "ssh <nodename> pkill --signal 9 -u <username><yourUserName>".  This will log you out of the node, since it also kills your current processes.
• If the above doesn't work do "bkill -r <jobid>" where "jobid" can be seen with the "bjobs" command.  But use this only as a last resort, since it will leave old processes running on the batch nodes.
