=Running a job on ALICE using Slurm=

Slurm (Simple Linux Utility for Resource Management) is an open-source job scheduler that allocates compute resources on clusters for queued researcher defined jobs.  Slurm has been deployed at various national and international computing centres, and by approximately 60% of the TOP500 supercomputers in the world.

You can learn more about SLURM and its commands from the [http://slurm.schedmd.com/ official Slurm website].

To use Slurm commands, you must first log in to either of the head nodes of ALICE, login1 or login2. For information on how to login to the ALICE long nodes see section [[Login to cluster]].
