The Open Portable Batch System - OpenPBS

OpenPBS is the batch job queueing system used with the "socrates" compute cluster. Because OpenPBS has numerous features and options, it can be complex to use. However, it's reasonably easy to run simple jobs under OpenPBS by creating an executable "script file" that contains the commands necessary to run your program, and then submitting this script to the OpenPBS system using the qsub command. Available documentation on OpenPBS includes:
  • Quick guide to using OpenPBS
  • OpenPBS tutorial and mini "HowTo" document
  • OpenPBS Administrator's guide
