"Memory specification can not be satisfied" errors but job complete?

[jkosinski]

I've got some "Memory specification can not be satisfied" error for this run: /g/kosinski/kosinski/devel/alphaabriss as seen in the attached log.

log.txt

But I think the output is there: /scratch/kosinski/TestAlphaAbriss/

What does it mean?

[maurerv]

Currently, snakemake increaes the requested RAM with every resubmit. Quick fix would be to add a cap on the requestable memory to comply with cluster limits

[jkosinski]

OK. And why do we have those resubmits? These are the crashing monomer jobs?

[maurerv]

Yes

[jkosinski]

OK, so possibly they should check the reason of crash, and if not memory issue, do not restart or restart with the same memory.
