Rosetta Stone of Workload Managers

PBS/Torque, Slurm, LSF, SGE and LoadLeveler

This table lists the most common command, environment variables, and job specification options used by the major workload management systems: PBS/Torque, Slurm, LSF, SGE and LoadLeveler. Each of these workload managers has unique features, but the most commonly used functionality is available in all of these environments as listed in the table. This should be considered a work in progress and contributions to improve the document are welcome.
