This shared queue uses task-spooler, see docs here (https://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/xenial/man1/tsp.1.html). This will help us to run jobs without clashing on GPU usage.

1. Install dependencies: sudo apt install -y task-spooler.
2. Install the tool by adding the current directory to your PATH. You can add this to your ~/.bashrc to make it permanent.

export PATH="$PATH:/opt/shared-queue" # or wherever you installed it :)

q is an alias for tsp (task-spooler) with some extra things like auto-labeling with the username of the invoker.

Common commands:

• Run q to view all jobs. Run q | grep -e ID -e $USER to see just your jobs.
• Run q <command> to queue a job.
• Run q -r <job-id> to remove a job.
• Run q -k <job-id> to kill a job.
• Please don't kill or remove other people's jobs without permission, even when they're complete - they may want to see the output.
• Run q -u <job-id> to move a job to the front of the queue.
• Run q -U <job-id 1>-<job-id 2> (very specific syntax) to swap two jobs in the queue. Example: q -U 1-10 swaps the order of jobs 1 and 10.

• qm (queue mine) is a convenience tool to list all jobs submitted by the current user.
• ql (queue live) is a convenience tool to list all jobs submitted by the current user which are not finished yet (queued or running).
• qh (queue head) is a convenience tool to list the first few jobs submitted by the current user.
• qr (queue remove) is a helper to remove multiple jobs at once. Usage: qr <job-id-1> <job-id-2> .. <job-id-n>
