Intro
To schedule and manage jobs on the Supek computer cluster, PBS Pro (Portable Batch System Professional) is used, which schedules jobs within the cluster. Its primary task is the distribution of computer tasks, i.e. batch jobs, among the available computer resources.
This document describes the use of PBS Pro 2022.1.1 version.
