Modify the above script for resources requested and submit using sbatch. A copy of this script is available at /share/Apps/examples/jupyter/jupyter.slurm. Submit it without modification using the command

Code Block
languagebash
sbatch /share/Apps/examples/jupyter/jupyter.slurm

Running Jupyter Notebook interactively on the compute node

If you need to run Jupyter Notebooks interactively, then you should request an interactive session on the partition of your choice.

Code Block
languagebash
srun -p //partitionname// --ntasks-per-node=//number of cores per node// -N //number of nodes -t //time requested in HH:MM:SS// --pty /bin/bash

Note that resources may not be available readily and you will need to wait until resources become available. Once resources are available, the scheduler will log you into a computer node. Load the appropriate Anaconda Python module (see available python modules for more information) and run the commands as listed in the above slurm script. For your convenience, the required commands are available in a script file, /share/Apps/examples/jupyter/notebook.sh.

Code Block
languagebash
sh /share/Apps/examples/jupyter/notebook.sh

The ssh command required to tunnel connections from your local system to the sol compute node and the jupyter notebook token will be printed on the screen.


Starting the Tunnel

Once you have submitted your job and it starts, your notebook server will be ready for you to connect. You can run squeue -u $(whoami) to check. You will see an “R” in the ST or status column for your notebook job if it is running. If you see a “PD” in the status column, you will have to wait for your job to start running to connect. The log file with information about how to connect will be in the directory you submitted the script from, and be named jupyter-notebook-[jobid].log where jobid is the slurm id for your job.

MacOS and Linux

On a Mac or Linux machine, you can start the tunnel with an SSH command. You can check the output from the job you started to get the specific info you need.

Create a ssh tunnel from your local system to the sol compute node. While running this example, the command used to tunnel into sol-a102 was

Code Block
languagebash
ssh -N -L 8854:sol-a102:8854 alp514@sol.cc.lehigh.edu

Once the tunnel was established, open a browser on your local system and use the link provided and replace node name with localhost. For example, the following link was used to access Jupyter Notebook for the above example.

Code Block
languagebash
http://localhost:8854/?token=a693ea95fc6b239b33c466fc67cdc3a1a3b78198810abec5
