- You cannot run jobs directly on the head node or servers, you should use the [Torque / PBS queue environment] to run your jobs.
- If for some exceptional reason you need to run a job directly on one of the servers (e.g. a job using a Linux GUI environment, please discuss your needs with our system administrator (johann.swart at up.ac.za).
- If you need an interactive terminal session on one of the servers (e.g. to compile code, setup jobs, test jobs), you can do this by using the qsub interactive mode, for example:
> qsub -I -q queue_name -l nodes=1:ppn=1 -l walltime=01:00:00
