Optimising jobs

The UPPMAX clusters use the Slurm job scheduler. However, a job may not have run optimally, i.e. reserving CPU power and/or memory that is not used.

This page describes how to optimise your Slurm jobs.

Commands

You will probably have good use of the following commands:

Command Description
finishedjobinfo information about finished jobs
jobinfo telling you about running and waiting jobs
jobstats see CPU and memory use of finished job in a plot
projinfo telling you about the CPU hour usage of your projects
projmembers telling you about project memberships
projsummary [project id] summarises some useful information about projects
uquota telling you about your file system usage

Check you storage with uquota

Check your CPU hour usage with projinfo
