Emulab FAQ: Testbed Operations: How do I deal with an experiment left in the "swapping" state?

Things are setup so that after editing the following DB state, you can then rerun the swapout:

       update experiments set
	  expt_locked=NULL, state='active', canceled=0
       where pid='PID' and eid='EID';

Change PID and EID of course. Then do a swapout again ...
