Abstract: The presentation will give an overview of how to best use Slurm to run batch jobs on the NHR clusters. Special topics such as data staging, multi-GPU jobs, chain jobs, dependencies, proper distribution of work, etc., will receive extra attention. This talk should be interesting to everyone who wants to get most out of Slurm or who needs to optimize their batch workflow.
