PBS/Torque

The pbs executor runs pipeline tasks using a resource manager from the PBS/Torque family of batch schedulers. It submits each task as a PBS job using the qsub command.

To enable the PBS executor, set process.executor = 'pbs' in the nextflow.config file. Launch the pipeline from a node where qsub is available, typically the cluster login node.

Use the following process directives to control resource requests and other job characteristics:

• clusterOptions
• cpus
• memory
• queue
• time
