| Directive | Description | Default value |
|---|---|---|
--job-name=value | The name of the job that appears in the batch queue | script_name |
--partition=... | The name of the queue in slurm | compute |
--output=... | The name of the file to collect the standard output of the job. The %j part in the job directives will be sustitute by the job ID. | file-%j.out |
--error=... | The name of the file to collect the standard error of the job. The %j part in the job directives will be sustitute by the job ID. | file-%j.err |
--workdirchdir=... | The working directory of your job (i.e. where the job will run). If not specified, it is the current working directory at the time the job was submitted. | submitting directory |
--qos=... | Quality of Service (or queue) where the job is allocated. By default, a queue is assigned for the user so this variable is not mandatory. | main |
--time=... | The limit of wall clock time. This is a mandatory field and you must set it to a value greater than the real execution time for your application and smaller than the time limits granted to the user. Notice that your job will be killed after the elapsed period. | qos default time limit |
--ntasks=... | The number of processes to allocate as parallel tasks. | 1 |
--cpus-per-task=... | Number of processors for each task. Without this option, the controller will just try to allocate one processor per task. The number of cpus per task must be between 1 and 16, since each node has 16 cores (one for each thread). | 1 |
--ntasks-per-node | The number of tasks allocated in each node. When an application uses more than 3.8 GB of memory per process, it is not possible to have 16 processes in the same node and its 64GB of memory. It can be combined with the cpus_per_task to allocate the nodes exclusively, i.e. to allocate 2, processes per node, set both directives to 2. The number of tasks per node must be between 1 and 16. | 1 |
--mem-per-cpu | Minimum memory required per allocated CPU. Default units are megabytes unless the SchedulerParameters configuration parameter includes the "default_gbytes" option for gigabytes. | DefMemPerCPU |
