How to Run Job on ABAQUS/2022 on ACRES

The following script can be used to run jobs on ABAQUS/2022 on ACRES. In this script, an input file called JobName.inp from Abaqus is being used to run a job on 2 nodes and 80 processors (40 processors per node) on the general partition of ACRES.

#!/bin/bash

#SBATCH --job-name=JobName #job name

#SBATCH --output=JobName.txt #output file name

#SBATCH --nodes=2 #number of nodes to use

#SBATCH --mail-type=ALL

module purge

module load pmix

module load abaqus/2022

export SLURM_MPI_TYPE=pmix

abq2022 job=JobName input=JobNa__me.inp double cpus=40 mp_mode=mpi interactive

To run on specific node(s), you can add this following command in your script:
