Objectives<\/h2>\n
Knowing how to launch different types of jobs with Slurm.<\/p>\n
Knowing how to monitor jobs<\/p>\n
\n<\/a><\/p>\n
Launching jobs with Slurm:<\/h2>\n
Launching commands from the master<\/h3>\n
The following command allocate computing resources ( nodes, memory, cores) and immediately launch the command on each allocate resource.<\/p>\n
$ srun + command<\/code><\/pre>\nExample:<\/p>\n
$ srun hostname<\/code><\/pre>\nAllow to obtain the name of the computing resource used. <\/p>\n
Connect to a node in interactive mode and launch commands:<\/h3>\n
To connect to a node in interactive mode for X minutes , use the following command :<\/p>\n
$ srun -p short --time=X:00 --pty bash -i<\/code><\/pre>\nThen you can launch on this node without using the srun prefix
srun<\/code> <\/p>\nConnect to a node in interactive mode with x11 support:<\/h3>\n
The x11 support allows you to launch graphical software within a node.<\/p>\n
You first have to connect to the bioinfo-master.ird.fr with the -X option:<\/p>\n
$ ssh -X login@bioinfo-master.ird.fr<\/code><\/pre>\nThen you can launch this command with the
--x11<\/code> option <\/p>\n$ srun -p short --x11 --pty bash -i<\/code><\/pre>\nPartitions available :<\/h3>\n
Depending on the type of jobs you want to launch you have the choice between several partitions<\/p>\n
The partitions can be considered as job queues, each of which has an assortment of constraints such as job size limit, job time limit, users permitted to use it, etc<\/p>\n
Priority-ordered jobs are allocated nodes within a partition until the resources (nodes, processors, memory, etc.) within that partition are exhausted. <\/p>\n
