Connecting

Currently, secure shell (SSH) is the only supported method of connecting to the cluster. The login machine name is consign.pmacs.upenn.edu You should probably add "ServerKeepAliveInterval 60" to your SSH client's configuration.

After your account is created, you can connect using your PMACS credentials.

Guidelines

Don't run compute-intensive tasks on the cluster head node (consign). Use an interactive node (bsub -Is bash) instead. Please read the man page for 'bsub' and the documentation linked below.

Common Commands (IBM Platform LSF)

Please also refer the man pages for bsub, bjobs, bkill, bhist, bqueues and bhosts.

  • bsub <job script> : submit a job description file for execution
  • bsub -Is bash : request a node for interactive use: see PMHPC:Using qlogin
  • bjbos <jobid> : show the status of a job
  • bjbos -l <jobid> : show more details about the job
  • bkill <jobid> : cancel a job
  • bjobs -u <user> : display jobs queued or running for a single user
  • bjobs -u all : to see all jobs
