Description
srun
Option
bsub -n num
Number of processes (tasks) to run.
-n
--ntasks=ntasks
HP XC does not provide this option because
the meaning of this option can be covered by
bsub -n
and mincpus=n.
Specifies the number of cores per task.
Min processors per node =
MAX(ncpus, mincpus)
-c
--processors-per-task=ntasks
-ext "SLURM[nodes=minmax]"
where minmax is min[-max]
Specifies the minimum and, optionally,
maximum number of nodes allocated
to job. The job allocation will contain
at least the minimum number of nodes.
-N
--nodes=min[-max]
-ext "SLURM[mincpus=n]"
Specifies the minimum number of
cores per node. Min processors per
node = MAX(-c ncpus, --mincpus=n).
Default value is 1.
--mincpus=n
-ext "SLURM[mem=MB]"
Specifies a minimum amount of real
memory of each node. By default, job
does not require -ext.
--mem=MB
-ext "SLURM[tmp=MB]"
Specifies a minimum amount of
temporary disk space of each node. By
default, job does not require -ext.
--tmp=MB
-ext "SLURM[constraint=list]"
Specifies a list of constraints. The list
may include multiple features
separated by the & character (meaning
ANDed) or the | (meaning ORed). By
default, job does not require -ext.
-C
--constraint=list
-ext
"SLURM[nodelist=node1,...nodeN]"
Requests a specific list of nodes. The
job will at least contain these nodes.
The list may be specified as a
comma-separated list of nodes, or a
range of nodes. By default, job does
not require -ext.
-w
--nodelist=node1,...nodeN
-ext
"SLURM[exclude=node1,...nodeN]"
Requests that a specific list of hosts be
excluded in the resource allocated to
this job. By default, job does not
require.
-x
--exclude=node1,...nodeN
You cannot use this option. The lsf partition
is the only one provided.
Requests resources from partition
partition
.
-p
--partition=partition
-ext "SLURM[contiguous=yes]"
Requests a contiguous range of nodes.
By default, job does not require
contiguous nodes.
--contiguous
bsub -o output_file
Specifies the mode for stdout
redirection.
-o
--output=file_name
You can use this option when launching
parallel tasks.
Specify the mode for stdout
redirection.
-o
--output=none,tasked
bsub -i input_file
Specify how stdin is to be redirected.
-i
--input=file_name
