R scripts can be submitted to the cluster using the submit command. The first step is to create and enable the projectrc. This step needs to be done only once. In the project directory, run the following commands:

echo tabby >> .modules
ern.projectrc.enable

The command below submits a job, to the cluster, requests 16 threads and 64gb of RAM, and runs an R script.

submit --profile=vnc --name=Example --threads=16 --memory=64gb --input="*.csv" \
--input="example.R" --command=Rscript -- example.R
