Batch Nodes/Queues

In 2021 LCLS switch to the SLURM batch system.

Information on the Automatic Run Processing system (ARP) can be found on this page: Automatic Run Processing (ARP).  This is also usable at sites like NERSC and SDF.

...

Note 1: Jobs for the current experiment can be submitted to fast feedback (FFB) queues, which allocate resources for the most recent experiments. The FFB queues in the tables below are for FEH experiments. NEH experiments LCLS-II experiments (TMO, RIX and UED). The FEH experiments (LCLS-I, including XPP) can submit FFB jobs to the new Fast Feedback System, which is significantly faster and more modern than psana..

Warning

As of February 2023, the offline compute resources have been consolidated into the psanaq. The priority queues have been removed.
