system-specified memory limit or not? #1398

Closed peanut-nu closed 2 weeks ago

peanut-nu commented 4 weeks ago

Hello, I am testing the Minigraph-cactus pipeline. The program reported an erro, but it is still running.

can you help me?thank you so much!

It looks like it is running out of memory and getting killed

bash: line 1: 8850 Killed minigraph /work/pan_cactus ...

you can try resuming by rerunning the same command with --restart. If that doesn't work you can try again from scratch but with more --mapCores. That would schedule fewer mapping jobs in parallel with less total memory usage.

Thank you so much ,that's what I figured.But i change the --mapCores to 60 ,and by rerunning the same command with --restart,it doesn't work.if i do it again ,the --mapCores option can be increased to whatever size to run?And the order contains 12 species, each with 12 chromosomes.

To change --mapCores you have to rerun from scratch (ie without --restart)
