Jobs in interactive mode: launching the program with srun but it remains stuck
After creating an interactive job with srun command
srun -N 1 -n X ... --pty /bin/bash
if I launch my job with srun
srun -n X program
the command remains stuck and nothing happens.
This is because the resources requested with the second srun are already allocated for the first srun and the command remains stuck waiting for the resources to be freed.
There are two possible solutions:
- create the interactive job with salloc instead of srun
salloc -N 1 -n X
please refer to this page with more details about how to use salloc. - launch the second command with the flag --overlap
srun -n X --overlap program
Performance:
I have found performance problems, what should I do?
