Due to the high load on the login / dialog nodes affecting their usability, we decided to reduce the maximum usable cores on each login node to four cores for each user. Please note: These login nodes should be used for programming, preparation and minimal post processing of batch jobs. They are not intended for production runs or performance tests. For longer tests (max. 25 minutes), parallel debugging, compiling, etc., you can use our “devel” partition by adding “#SBATCH –partition=devel” to batch jobs or interactively with “salloc -p devel”.
For all productive jobs, please use our batch system **without** “#SBATCH –partition=devel”. If you want to more learn more about the batch system, we invite you to our Slurm introduction.
You can track any disruptions or security advisories that may occur due to the aforementioned change in the RWTH-HPC category on our status reporting portal.
