Upcoming Retirement of Auger and SWIF version 1

Beginning on March 1st, 2022 the Auger and SWIF version 1 commands will no longer be available. They have been superseded by the Slurm workload manager and by SWIF version 2 (swif2):

  • Slurm includes GPU and MPI support, features absent in Auger. Detailed Documentation about Slurm at JLab is available.
  • Swif2 is built on top of Slurm and supports running workflows with file staging, both locally and at remote sites. See the SWIF2 manual for details.

For more information on the upcoming change and the changes to the job submission, please see the Migration Guide.

  • On Tuesday, March 1st, the deprecated commands will be removed, Auger and SWIF1 services will be shut down, and documentation will be removed. The swif command will become an alias for swif2.
