Quick Start
To use the lugh configuration profile with your pipeline, add -profile lugh to your nextflow run command:
nextflow -bg run nf-core/rnaseq -profile test,nuigPlease take care to use the -bg flag, or run the job on a compute node.
⚠️ DO NOT RUN ANALYSES ON THE HEAD NODE ⚠️
The configuration file will load prerequisite modules for users (Java & Singularity), however it is up to the user to have a functional version of nextflow installed in their path. Follow nextflow installation instructions at the following link.
Queue Resources
| Queue | Hostnames | Max Memory | Max CPUS | Max Time |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| MSC | compute[01-03] | 32GB | 16 | 336.h |
| Normal | compute[10-29] | 64GB | 16 | 240.h |
| Highmem | compute[04-09] | 128GB | 32 | 2880.h |
The configuration profile design is very simple. If your process exceeds 64GB memory or 16 cpus, it is sent to the highmem queue. If not, it is sent to the normal queue. Please do not use the MSC queue, this is reserved for Masters students.
Take others into consideration when deploying your workflow (do not hog the cluster 🐷). If you need to hammer the cluster with a pipeline, please reach out to me and we can tweak the configuration profile to dispatch jobs to only a handful of compute nodes via hostnames.
Container Cache
Your workflow containers are stored under /data/containers/ which is accessible to all users on lugh.
