Every node provides a locally shared temporary directory This directory is a private directory, it will only be seen by your Job. Avoid using all of its space at once and allow other users to make use of the Local Node Filesystem as well. Data retention policy Data in A typical Job using the Local Node Filesystem has at least three steps: Care must be taken that SLURM logfiles are not copied to the Local Node Filesystem. This could lead to (in the worst case) Job crashes and will always be overwritten when copied back. Never use Handling Timelimit-situations for Jobs using the Local Node Filesystem. If you are unsure how long your Job will take, it might run into the timelimit. Make sure you implement a mechanism to copy back important intermediate results in this case, because the private Local Node Filesystem
