Hi all,
We've recently started seeing people using the remote desktop server to
perform large scale analyses. This is just a reminder that it is not
for that sort of work. Performing large scale analysis jobs in this way
impacts on other users of the system and has caused us to have to kill
jobs.
Large scale analysis jobs *must* be submitted to the cluster. This is
fairly straightforward for FSL jobs, MATLAB jobs, python scripts and
most other general tools. There are some examples on the YNiC wiki:
https://www.ynic.york.ac.uk/docs/ITPages/Cluster
https://www.ynic.york.ac.uk/docs/ITPages/MRI/FSLCluster
https://www.ynic.york.ac.uk/docs/ITPages/IT/ClusterMatlab
https://www.ynic.york.ac.uk/docs/ITPages/IT/ClusterScripts
We are going to work on improving the documentation regarding use of the
cluster. In the meantime, if you have any questions regarding using the
cluster for analysis, please contact either myself
<mark.hymers(a)ynic.york.ac.uk> or Paul Elliott
<paul.elliott(a)ynic.york.ac.uk>
Thanks,
Mark
