Configuration

To configure Lucy to run this command, Lucy needs a valid connection to d3VIEW, Rescale, and the rescale api keys file. A Rescale burst map will be required in the selected HPC Server and the job must be submitted with the burst enabled.

The Rescale burst map will map selections that work for a job submitted on a local cluster to the options available in the Rescale environment. For example, if all nodes on the local cluster have 24 cores, and an entire node is desired, the burst map can make a selection of 24 cores map to 36 cores for a cloud node with 36 cores by default.
