Requesting Generic Resources

When generic resources have been assigned to nodes using the server's nodes file, these resources can be requested at the time of job submission using the other field. (See Managing Consumable Generic Resources for details on configuration within Moab).

Example 4-13: Generic

This job will run on any node that has the generic resource matlab.

> qsub -l other=matlab /home/user/script.sh

This can also be requested at the time of job submission using the -W x=GRES:matlab flag.
