Help:HPCC Torque Queues

Job Queues on the CSDMS HPCC

We have defined a set of queues that you can submit your jobs to on beach. Note that if you do not specify a queue, it will be sent to the default queue. More importantly note that the default queue has a maximum run time of 4 days and so if your job has not finished after 4 days, it will be killed.
