Submission Lifecycle
A submission moves from queued to running to done — or hits an error along the way. Here's what each status means and what you can do at each stage.
| Status | Meaning |
|---|---|
| CREATED | Queued and waiting to be dispatched to the cluster. |
| SUBMITTED | Handed off to Slurm. The cluster picks it up based on partition availability. |
| DONE | Script ran to completion and exited successfully. |
| REJECTED | Slurm refused the script — check the report message for syntax or parameter errors. |
| ABORTED | Something went wrong during processing. The report message has details. |
| Action | CREATED | SUBMITTED | DONE | REJECTED | ABORTED |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Re-Submit | — | — | Yes | Yes | Yes |
| Edit | Yes | Yes | Yes | Yes | Yes |
| Delete | Yes | — | Yes | Yes | Yes |
- Re-Submit: Creates a new submission from the same script. Only available for terminal states.
- Edit: Name and description editable at any time from the detail page.
- Delete: Not available while actively running on cluster (SUBMITTED).
warning
Jobs in SUBMITTED status are waiting for scheduling by Slurm. If the cluster is busy, your job may wait — check cluster utilization before submitting. Idle queue time still accrues cost if you're reserving full nodes.
