launched on LSF-HPC node allocation (compute nodes). LSF-HPC node allocation is created by -n
num-procs

parameter, which specifies the number of cores the job requests.

The SLURM srun job launch command is only needed if the LSF-HPC JOB_STARTER script is not
configured for the intended queue, but it can be used regardless of whether or not the script is configured.
You can use the bqueues command to confirm whether or not the JOB_STARTER script exists; see bqueues(1)
for information on the bqueues command.

Example 5-1

invoking the bsub command after which a job can be entered from the standard input.

5.2.2 Submitting a Serial Job Through SLURM Only

This section describes how to build a simple hello world application, called hw_hostname, execute it
on the login node, and launch it with the SLURM srun command.

The following is the C source code for this program; the file name is hw_hostname.c.

#include

#include

int main()

{

char name[100];

gethostname(name, sizeof(name));

printf("%s says Hello!\n", name);
