The following tag characters have special meanings: %g the global rank of the process %G the number of processes %h the rank of the node %H the number of nodes %l the rank of the process on this node %L the number of processes on the node %m text base of the hostname %n numeric part of the hostname %p the pid of the process %t the current time (hh:mm:ss) %@ the hostname of the node (same as "%m%-n") %% a single % -N nodes number of nodes to allocate -n procs number of processes to run -m block|cyclic process to node mapping -o mode set stdout mode -O allow resources to be overcommited ie. allow more processes than CPUs -P project project to use -p partition partition to use -R request set resource request flag. request can be: hwbcast=0|1 immediate=0|1 maxcpus=n mincpus=n pty=0|1 samecpus=0|1 rails=n railmask=mask -r rsh mode (admin use only) -s print stats as job exits -t prefix output with process number (same as -l "%g ") -v enable reporting Resources are allocated (and freed) for the job, unless previously assigned using allocate. The default process distribution is block. Multiple requests can be entered as a comma-separated list, for example, 'prun -R hwbcast=1,immediate=1 ...'. Stdio for a parallel program is controlled by three stdio modes one each for stdin (-i), stdout (-o) and stderr (-e). These modes control how input to prun is directed to the application processes and how their output on stdout/stderr is processed by prun. The supported stdio modes are: all all processes send/receive none no processes send/receive {rank} only process {rank} can send/receive file processes read/write from/to file.{rank} The default modes are stdin=0, stdout=all, stderr=all, i.e. stdin is directed to process 0 and output on stdout/stderr from all processes is returned to prun. 'prun -p root ...' and 'prun -r ...' are equivalent in that -p root implies rsh mode and -r implies -p root. In both cases the partition, will be root, rsh mode will be set and 1 process per node will run. By default -N will be set to all nodes. Procfile line format should be one of the following: number hostname[:path] executable arguments lowrank;highrank;step hostname[:path] executable arguments number index[:path] executable arguments lowrank;highrank;step index[:path] executable arguments
