nf-core pipelines have been successfully configured for use on the UConn HPC cluster at Xanadu.
To use the xanadu profile, run the pipeline with -profile xanadu
. This will download and apply xanadu.config
which has been pre-configured for the UConn HPC cluster "Xanadu". Using this profile, all Nextflow processes will be run within singularity containers, which can download and convert from docker containers when necesary.
A Nextflow module is available on the Xanadu HPC cluster, to use run module load nextflow
or module load nextflow/<version>
prior to running your pipeline. If you are expecting the NextFlow pipeline to consume more space than is available, you can set the work directory to /scratch/<userid>
which can handle 84.TB
with export NXF_WORK=/scratch/<userid>
