   * If you need more than one GPU card (on a single machine), always require as many CPU cores (''-pe smp X'') as many GPU cards you need. E.g. <code>qsub -q gpu.q -l gpu=4,gpu_cc_min3.5=1,gpu_ram=7G -pe smp 4</code> **Warning**: currently, this does not work, so you can omit the ''-pe smp X'' part. Milan Fučík is working on a fix.   * If you need more than one GPU card (on a single machine), always require as many CPU cores (''-pe smp X'') as many GPU cards you need.

   * For interactive jobs, you can use ''qrsh'', but make sure to end your job as soon as you don't need the GPU (so don't use qrsh for long training). **Warning: ''-pty yes bash'' is necessary**, otherwise the variable ''$CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES'' will not be set correctly. E.g. <code>qrsh -q gpu.q -l gpu=1,gpu_ram=2G -pty yes bash</code>In general: don't reserve a GPU (as described above) without actually using it for longer time. (E.g. try separating steps which need GPU and steps which do not and execute those separately on our GPU resp. CPU cluster.) Ondřej Bojar has a script /home/bojar/tools/servers/watch_gpus for watching reserved but unused GPU on most machines which will e-mail you, but don't rely on in only.   * For interactive jobs, you can use ''qrsh'', but make sure to end your job as soon as you don't need the GPU (so don't use qrsh for long training). **Warning: ''-pty yes bash'' is necessary**, otherwise the variable ''$CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES'' will not be set correctly.

-  * Note that the dll machines have typically 10 cards, but "just" 250 GB RAM. So the expected (maximal) ''mem_free'' requirement for jobs with 1 GPU is 25GB. If your 1-GPU job takes e.g. 80 GB and you submit three such jobs on the same machine, you have effectively blocked the whole machine and seven GPUs remain unused.+  * Note that the dll machines have typically 10 cards, but "just" 250 GB RAM (DLL6 has only 128 GB).

If you really need to submit more high-memory jobs, send each on different machine.

 When not using Theano, just Tensorflow this can be simplified to ''export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/opt/cuda-8.0/cudnn/6.0/lib64:/opt/cuda-8.0/lib64''. Note that on some machines (dll*, twister*), this is the current default even without setting LD_LIBRARY_PATH, but on other machines (kronos, titan, titan-gpu, iridium) you need to set LD_LIBRARY_PATH explicitly. When not using Theano, just Tensorflow this can be simplified to ''export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/opt/cuda-8.0/cudnn/6.0/lib64:/opt/cuda-8.0/lib64''.

 +You also need to use ''qsub -q gpu.q@dll[256]'' because only those machines have drivers which support CUDA 9.
