1 General Workflow of Running a Calculation
On a compute cluster, you do not simply run log in and your software, but you write a "job script" that contains all commands to run and process your job and send this into a waiting queue to be run on one of several hundred computers.
How this is done is described in a little more detail here: Running Calculations
2 Get access to the cluster
Follow the registration process for the bwUniCluster. → bwUniCluster registration
3 Login to the cluster
Setup service password and 2FA token and login to the cluster. → Login and security measures
4 Transfer your data to the cluster
Get familiar with available file systems on the cluster. → File Systems and Workspaces
Transfer your data to the cluster using appropriate tools. → Data Transfer
5 Find information about installed software and examples
Compiler, Libraries and application software are provided as software modules. Learn how to work with software modules. → Software
6 Submit your application as a batch job
Get familiar with available nodes types on the cluster. → Hardware and Architecture
Submit and monitor your jobs with Slurm commands. → Batch System Slurm
7 Acknowledge the cluster
Remember to mention the cluster in your publications. → Acknowledgement
