Job Submit CLI

To run the following examples, download the files and change your working directory:

$ git clone https://github.com/flux-framework/flux-workflow-examples.git
$ cd flux-workflow-examples/job-submit-cli

Part(a) - Partitioning Schedule

Description: Launch a flux instance and schedule/launch compute and io-forwarding jobs on separate nodes

1. salloc -N3 -ppdebug

2. srun --pty --mpi=none -N3 flux start -o,-S,log-filename=out

3. flux mini submit --nodes=2 --ntasks=4 --cores-per-task=2 ./compute.lua 120

4. flux mini submit --nodes=1 --ntasks=1 --cores-per-task=2 ./io-forwarding.lua 120

5. List running jobs:

flux jobs

JOBID     USER     NAME       ST NTASKS NNODES  RUNTIME RANKS
ƒ3ETxsR9H moussa1  io-forward  R      1      1   2.858s 2
ƒ38rBqEWT moussa1  compute.lu  R      4      2    15.6s [0-1]

6. Get information about job:

flux job info ƒ3ETxsR9H R

{"version":1,"execution":{"R_lite":[{"rank":"2","children":{"core":"0-1"}}]}}

flux job info ƒ38rBqEWT R

{"version":1,"execution":{"R_lite":[{"rank":"0-1","children":{"core":"0-3"}}]}}

Part(b) - Overlapping Schedule

Description: Launch a flux instance and schedule/launch both compute and io-forwarding jobs across all nodes

1. salloc -N3 -ppdebug

2. srun --pty --mpi=none -N3 flux start -o,-S,log-filename=out

3. flux mini submit --nodes=3 --ntasks=6 --cores-per-task=2 ./compute.lua 120

4. flux mini submit --nodes=3 --ntasks=3 --cores-per-task=1 ./io-forwarding.lua 120

5. List jobs in KVS:

flux jobs

JOBID     USER     NAME       ST NTASKS NNODES  RUNTIME RANKS
ƒ3ghmgCpw moussa1  io-forward  R      3      3   16.91s [0-2]
ƒ3dSybfQ3 moussa1  compute.lu  R      6      3    24.3s [0-2]

6. Get information about job:

flux job info ƒ3ghmgCpw R

{"version":1,"execution":{"R_lite":[{"rank":"0-2","children":{"core":"4"}}]}}

flux job info ƒ3dSybfQ3 R

{"version":1,"execution":{"R_lite":[{"rank":"0-2","children":{"core":"0-3"}}]}}
