Depending on your data access you may need to submit jobs to a specific farm. This is accomplished by submitting to the appropriate LSF batch queue. Refer to the table below. Jobs for the current experiment should be submitted to the high priority queues psnehprioq psnehhiprioq and psfehprioq psfehhiprioq running against the Fast Feedback storage layer (FFB) located at /reg/d/ffb/<hutch>/<experiment>. Only psnehprioq/psfehprioq . Jobs for the off-shift experiment should be submitted to psnehprioq and psfehprioq. Only psneh(hi)prioq/psfeh(hi)prioq should access the FFB. When in doubt, use psanaq.

Submitting Batch Jobs
LSF (Load Sharing Facility) is the job scheduler used at SLAC to execute user batch jobs on the various batch farms. LSF commands can be run from a number of SLAC servers, but best to use the interactive psana farm. Login first to pslogin and then to psana. From there you can submit a job with the following command:
...
| No Format |
|---|
bsub -q psnehq -R "rusagemem=1024" my_program
|
Change the default job time limit:
| No Format |
|---|
bsub -W <[hour:]minute> my_program
