Dear Miro,

On my cluster it works by a command

salloc -p cluster_name -N6 sleep infinity &

This particular command allocates 6 nodes. You can find which ones by squeue command. Then passworless to these nodes is allowed in my cluster. Then in .machines I include the names of these nodes and things work.

But there is a big chance that this is blocked in your cluster, you need to ask your administrator.

I think srun is the required command within the slurm shell script. You should get some example shell scripts from your administrator or colleagues who use the cluster.

As I mentioned in my earlier email, Prof. Blaha provides workarounds for slurm. If simple ways are blocked, you will just need to implement these workarounds. It might not be easy, but setting up cluster calculations is not supposed to be easy.

Best,
Lukasz

 " In order to use multiple nodes, you need to be able to do
passwordless ssh to the allocated nodes (or any other command
substituting ssh). "

 According to our cluster admin, one  can use (maybe) 'srun' to
allocate and connect to a batch node.

 Would  it possible to use  "srun" within Wien2k scripts to run
parallel jobs please ?  We are using common disk space on that
cluster.

 Best, Miro
