Boston University Shared Computing Cluster (SCC) MPI interactive job with qrsh example

Raw

There are a few node types on BU SCC that are designed for MPI jobs. The job script syntax can be used for interactive session start.

qrsh -pe mpi_28_tasks_per_node 56

To use older nodes for quick testing without long waits (usually) try:

qrsh -pe mpi_8_tasks_per_node 8

If unexpected results, check if file ~/.sge_request has unexpected settings.
