CXFEL Compute Resources

1. Access Eligibility
   Users in the grp_cxfel group have exclusive access to lab-owned hardware resources. Jobs using this QoS do not impact public fairshare calculations.

2. Partition and QoS Setup
   Use the grp_cxfel QoS in combination with the appropriate partition (highmem or general for CPU and GPU nodes).

Submitting Jobs

highmem-sbatch

High-memory example. These nodes are located in the highmem partition.

#!/bin/bash

#SBATCH -N 1              # number of nodes
#SBATCH -c 4              # number of cores to allocate
#SBATCH -p highmem        # Partition
#SBATCH -q grp_cxfel      # QoS
#SBATCH --mem=1000G       # Request 1000 GB memory
#SBATCH -t 2-00:00:00     # Walltime: 2 days

highmem-interactive

Same High-memory example. These nodes are located in the highmem partition.

salloc -p highmem -q grp_cxfel --mem=500G -t 2-00:00:00

gpu-sbatch

GPU example. These nodes are located in the general partition.

#!/bin/bash

#SBATCH -N 1               # number of nodes
#SBATCH -c 4               # number of cores to allocate
#SBATCH -p general         # Partition
#SBATCH -q grp_cxfel       # QoS
#SBATCH --gres=gpu:2       # Request 2 GPUs
#SBATCH -t 10-00:00:00     # Walltime: 10 days

gpu-interactive

Same GPU example. These nodes are located in the general partition.

salloc -N 1 -c 4 -p general -q grp_cxfel --gres=gpu2 -t 10-0
