bsub argument | requirement | description |
---|---|---|
-q <queue_name> | optional | Specifies a job submission queue. Not required for running jobs in the general shared clusters. |
-W <[hours]:minutes> | required | Wallclock runtime limit that is not normalized for CPU differences. Essential for efficient job scheduling. Jobs will be terminated if they exceed this runlimit |
-We <[hours]:minutes> | optional | Wallclock estimated runtime limit that is not normalized for CPU differences. The system will consider this estimate for scheduling purposes. Jobs may be not terminated immediately if they exceed this limit |
-c <[hours]:minutes> | optional | cputime limit that is normalized by the CPU factor of the assigned core. Intended to prevent runaway jobs but it is not used to schedule time on cores. |
