Roughly speaking, there are two different modes to use an HPC system: Interactive and Batch. For a general discussion see the section Production Environment and Tools.
Interactive
A serial program can be executed in the standard UNIX way:
...
A list of partitions defined on the cluster, with access rights and resources definition, can be displayed with the command sinfo:

%P"
The command returns a more readable output which shows, for each partition, the total number of nodes and the number of nodes by state in the format "Allocated/Idle/Other/Total".

The m100_all_serial partition is available with a maximum walltime of 4 hours, 1 core and 7600 MB per job. It runs on two dedicated nodes (equipped with 4 Volta GPUs), and it is designed for pre/post-processing serial analysis (using or not the GPUs), for moving your data (via rsync, scp etc.), and for programming tools.
