====== Simple Sequential Slurm Job ======

This is the basis of most common, sequential Slurm jobs and can be extended easily by adjusting the CPU, RAM and runtime resources. Items to note are:

   * Uses the HPC Project group **myhpcproject**; change to use your //real// HPC Project name
   * Submitted to the //free// **default_free** partition (''--partition=default_free'')
   * Requests **1 CPU** (''--cpus-per-task=1'')
   * Requests **1GB** of RAM (''--mem=1G'')
   * Requests up to **10 hours** of runtime (''--time=10:00:00''), for a maximum //possible// total of **10 Compute Hours** (''cpus_per_task * time_in_hours'')
   * Prints the time the job started to the log file
   * Prints the name of the compute node(s) it will run on
   * Prints the time the job finished to the log file

<code lang=bash title=slurm_sequential.sh>
#!/bin/bash

#SBATCH --account=myhpcproject
#SBATCH --partition=default_free
#SBATCH --cpus-per-task=1
#SBATCH --mem=1G
#SBATCH --time=10:00:00

# Log when we started
echo "Job started at: `date`"

# Show which node(s) we are running on
HOSTNAMES=`scontrol show hostnames $SLURM_JOB_NODELIST`
echo "Job is running on: $HOSTNAMES"

# Add any 'module load' commands here

# Add your custom commands you want to run here

# Log when we finished
echo "Job finished at: `date`"
