Scheduler Options

Every galyleo session runs as a batch job submitted to Slurm. As such, you must specify the following key command-line options to request the compute resources required for the job.

  • -A, --account: charge the compute resources required by this job to the specified account (e.g., abc123)
  • -p, --partition: select the resource partition (or queue) for the job (e.g. , debug)
  • -c, --cpus: number of cpus to request for the job
  • -m, --memory: amount of memory (in GB) required for the job
  • -g, --gpus: number of GPUs required for the job
  • -t, --time-limit: set a maximum runtime (in HH:MM:SS) for the job
