Hi! I am trying to generate a genome, and I have attached my script below:

I believe I have sufficient RAM to run the program (although I could be wrong), and have also attached a picture of my LogOut file

Any help would be appreciated, thank you so much!

Hi Brittanie,

The most common reason for "Killed" is insufficient RAM. You can check it with free -g command. This genome will require ~32GB.

Hi Alex! Sorry for the late response, I believe I do have enough RAM for this process, I've attached it below.

Hi Brittanie, another thing to check is the limit on memory, with ulimit -a command.
