# Introduction
|
|
|
|
!!! failure "Deprecated"
|
|
Merlin6 is no longer accessible for new users! Please have a look at
|
|
[Merlin 7](../merlin7/01-Quick-Start-Guide/introduction.md) instead.
|
|
|
|
## Slurm clusters
|
|
|
|
Comprised the **`merlin6`** CPU cluster and the
|
|
[**`gmerlin6`**](../gmerlin6/cluster-introduction.md) GPU cluster. A legacy
|
|
cluster (formally called [**`merlin5`**](../merlin5/cluster-introduction.md) is
|
|
kept active with best effort support.
|
|
|
|
From July 2019, **`merlin6`** becomes the **default Slurm cluster** and any job
|
|
submitted from the login node will be submitted to that cluster if not.
|
|
|
|
* Users can keep submitting to the old *`merlin5`* computing nodes by using the option ``--cluster=merlin5``.
|
|
* Users submitting to the **`gmerlin6`** GPU cluster need to specify the option ``--cluster=gmerlin6``.
|
|
|
|
### Slurm 'merlin6'
|
|
|
|
**CPU nodes** are configured in a **Slurm** cluster, called **`merlin6`**, and
|
|
this is the ***default Slurm cluster***. Hence, by default, if no Slurm cluster
|
|
is specified (with the `--cluster` option), this will be the cluster to which
|
|
the jobs will be sent.
