Rilseq on HPC
This package can be used to analyzed RILseq experiments. It is written for a prokaryotic genome, without splice junction mapping and with some additional features. The package handles the different stages processing fastq files to pairs of interacting RNAs and some statistics. It does not handle quality issues, adapter removing etc. so the fastq files should be treated with cutadapt or equivalent before applying this package.

Interactive job
Interactive jobs should be used for debugging, graphics, or applications that cannot be run as batch jobs.
Allocate an interactive session and run the program. Sample session:
[user@biowulf]$ sinteractive salloc.exe: Pending job allocation 46116226 salloc.exe: job 46116226 queued and waiting for resources salloc.exe: job 46116226 has been allocated resources salloc.exe: Granted job allocation 46116226 salloc.exe: Waiting for resource configuration salloc.exe: Nodes cn3144 are ready for job [user@cn3144 ~]$ module load rilseq [user@cn3144 ~]$ rilseq command [user@cn3144 ~]$ exit salloc.exe: Relinquishing job allocation 46116226 [user@biowulf ~]$
Batch job
Most jobs should be run as batch jobs.
Create a batch input file (e.g. batch.sh). For example:
#!/bin/bash set -e module load rilseq rilseq command
Submit this job using the Slurm sbatch command.
sbatch [--mem=#] batch.sh
Swarm of Jobs
A swarm of jobs is an easy way to submit a set of independent commands requiring identical resources.
Create a swarmfile (e.g. job.swarm). For example:
cd dir1;rilseq command 1; rilseq command 2
cd dir2;rilseq command 1; rilseq command 2
cd dir3;rilseq command 1; rilseq command 2
Submit this job using the swarm command.
swarm -f job.swarm [-t #] --module rilseqwhere
-g # | Number of Gigabytes of memory required for each process (1 line in the swarm command file) |
--module | Loads the module for each subjob in the swarm |
