Running jobs

Trixie use the slurm scheduler to manage jobs. Compute Canada has a very good guide for using slurm to submit jobs to a cluster most of which is applicable for Trixie: https://docs.computecanada.ca/wiki/Running_jobs

Here is a simple job which runs the python code hello.py

Contents of hello.py

print('Hello world')

Contents of hello-job.sh

#!/bin/bash
#SBATCH -J helloworld

module load miniconda3-4.8.2-gcc-9.2.0-sbqd2xu
srun python ~/hello.py

Submit job:

sbatch ./hello-job.sh

Output will be located in slurm-.out

In order for a job to run on Trixie, it must be "billed" against an approved project. Users are able to charge different projects depending on what their activity is for.
