Resource Management with Slurm
Slurm Job Scheduling System
sbatch
To submit a batch serial job to Slurm, use the sbatch command:
$ sbatch runscript.sh
For batch jobs, sbatch is one of the most important commands, made powerful by its large number of options.
srun
To run parallel jobs, use srun:
$ srun --pty -p test -t 10 --mem 1000 /bin/bash [script or app]
The same command
$ srun --pty -p test -t 10 --mem 1000 /bin/bash
runs an application script interactively.
scancel
The scancel command allows you to cancel a specific job; for example,
$ scancel 999999
cancels job 999999. You can find the ID of your job with the squeue command.
