Introduction

!!! note Merlin6 is no longer accessible for new users! Please have a look at Merlin 7 instead.

Slurm clusters

Comprised the merlin6 CPU cluster and the gmerlin6 GPU cluster. A legacy cluster (formally called merlin5 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.
