nf-core/configs: LUGH configuration

Quick Start

To use the lugh configuration profile with your pipeline, add -profile lugh to your nextflow run command:

nextflow -bg run nf-core/rnaseq -profile test,nuig

Please take care to use the -bg flag, or run the job on a compute node.

⚠️ DO NOT RUN ANALYSES ON THE HEAD NODE ⚠️

The configuration file will load prerequisite modules for users (Java & Singularity), however it is up to the user to have a functional version of nextflow installed in their path. Follow nextflow installation instructions at the following link.

Queue Resources

Queue Hostnames Max Memory Max CPUS Max Time
MSC compute[01-03] 32GB 16 336.h
Normal compute[10-29] 64GB 16 240.h
Highmem compute[04-09] 128GB 32 2880.h

The configuration profile design is very simple. If your process exceeds 64GB memory or 16 cpus, it is sent to the highmem queue. If not, it is sent to the normal queue. Please do not use the MSC queue, this is reserved for Masters students.

Take others into consideration when deploying your workflow (do not hog the cluster 🐷). If you need to hammer the cluster with a pipeline, please reach out to me and we can tweak the configuration profile to dispatch jobs to only a handful of compute nodes via hostnames.

Container Cache

Your workflow containers are stored under /data/containers/ which is accessible to all users on lugh.
