This is just a brief guide to get you started. All queues, limits, and hardware are documented in detail at the [[DACHS/Hardware]].

Our default queue is <code>gpu1</code> that you specify with <code>--partition=gpu1</code> explicitly. Other queues are <code>gpu4</code> (4 AMD MI300A APUs) and <code>gpu8</code> (8 NVIDIA H100 GPUs). For more deatiled information, visit [https://wiki.bwhpc.de/e/DACHS/Queues DACHS/Queues].

This is the content of <code>testjob.sh</code>. It is basically a Bash script with some instructions in the format of comment for the Slurm scheduler.

<syntaxhighlight lang="sh">#!/bin/bash
#SBATCH --ntasks=1 # allocate 1 CPU
#SBATCH --time=30:00 # time limit of 30 min
#SBATCH --mem=42gb # allocate 42 GB RAM
#SBATch --gres=gpu:1 # allocate one GPU
#SBATCH --job-name="CHANGEME job name"
# Uncomment the following lines to get email notifications about your job
# #SBATCH --mail-type=ALL # list of "ALL,START,END
# #SBATCH --mail-user=CHANGME@EMAIL.COM

# You Shell script that setups your job and starts your work is here.
# That might include loading a module from provided software (check with
# `module avail` or sourcing a Python environment.

# Load Python 3.13.3 compiled with gnu 14.2
module load devel/python/3.13.3-gnu-14.2

# Run your Python script that you previously prepared on the Login node.
uv run python3 main.py</syntaxhighlight>
For a detailed overview of slurm visit the [https://wiki.bwhpc.de/e/BwUniCluster2.0/Slurm SBATCH options and Slurm wiki page].

You can display available nodes by running

<syntaxhighlight lang="sh">sinfo_t_idle</syntaxhighlight>

Submit your job:
<syntaxhighlight lang="sh">sbatch testjob.sh</syntaxhighlight>

When you queued a job, you can show its status:

<syntaxhighlight lang="sh">squeue</syntaxhighlight>
If resources are not immediately available add <code>--start</code> to show its expected start time:

<syntaxhighlight lang="sh">squeue --start</syntaxhighlight>
If you want to cancel your job run

<syntaxhighlight lang="sh">scancel <jobid></syntaxhighlight>
