About this document

How do I run a job on a HPC machine?

Job Submission

Submit a Job
  • Ask the batch system to run your job;
  • optionally request a particular queue (e.g., short, long, or parallel).
  • The batch system will allocate CPUs/compute-nodes for your job (eventually).
Monitor a Job
  • Has my job started yet? How long has it been running? (Where is it running?)
Delete a Job
  • If you change your mind.
