Are there any default resource limits set for jobs?

A: Default values are set for walltime, CPUs, memory and scratch.

• default walltime = 1200 s
• default cpu cores = 1
• default memory = 2 GB (per one core)
• default scratch = 20 GB (per one core)

You can adjust these values at a job_submission_file.

+MaxRuntime = 3600
request_cpus = 1
request_memory = 5G
request_disk = 30G

Jobs that exceed MaxRuntime will be killed by the batch system.
Jobs that exceed required values for memory or scratch will be on-hold for one day and then will be removed. You can modify job memory or scratch requirements during the hold state and release held jobs (see Hold State).

Default maximum values that cannot be exceeded are set to:

• max walltime = 2 weeks
• max cpu cores = 128
• max memory = 512 GB
• max scratch = 1 TB
