NAME
       pbs_resources_linux - pbs resources on Linux

DESCRIPTION
       This page summarizes the resources supported by PBS for PC
       workstations running Linux.  These resources are specified
       by including them in the _-_l option argument on the qsub or
       qalter command or in the PBS job script.


RESOURCES
       cput      Maximum amount of CPU time used by all processes
                 in the job.  Units: time.

       file      The  largest size of any single file that may be
                 created by the job.  Units: size.

       nice      The nice value under which the job is to be run.
                 Units: unitary.

       pcput     Maximum  amount  of  CPU time used by any single
                 process in the job.  Units: time.

       pmem      Maximum amount of physical  memory  (workingset)
                 used  by  any single process of the job.  Units:
                 size.

       pvmem     Maximum amount of virtual  memory  used  by  any
                 single process in the job.  Units: size.

       vmem      Maximum  amount  of  virtual  memory used by all
                 concurrent processes in the job.  Units: size.

       walltime  Maximum amount of real time during which the job
                 can be in the running state.  Units: time.

       qsub  -l  cput=1:00:00,walltime=2:00:00,file=50gb,mem=15mb
       script
       qalter -lcput=30:00,pmem=8mb 123.jobid

       or in a qsub script as a directive:

       #PBS -l cput=1:00:00,walltime=2:00:00,file=50gb,mem=15mb


RESOURCE UNITS
       The resource values take the following units:

       time    specifies a maximum time period the  resource  can
               be used.  Time is expressed in seconds as an inte­
               ger, or in the form:

       size    specifies the maximum amount in terms of bytes  or
               words.   It is expressed in the form The suffix is
               a multiplier defined in the following  table,  The
               size  of  a word is the word size on the execution
               host.

                b or  w    bytes or words.

               kb or kw    Kilo (1024) bytes or words.

               mb or mw    Mega (1,048,576) bytes or words.

               gb or gw    Giga (1,073,741,824) bytes or words.

       unitary The  maximum  amount  of  a  resource   which   is
               expressed as a simple integer.
