In `@notebooks/2-hpc-cluster.ipynb`:
- Line 1: Update the pysqa `slurm.sh` submission template example to avoid the
invalid hard-coded `my_partition` placeholder: parameterize the `#SBATCH
--partition` directive with the existing `partition` resource value and include
a matching `partition` entry in the following `SlurmClusterExecutor.submit`
resource_dict, or explicitly instruct readers to replace the placeholder.
- Line 1: Document that PysqaSpawner always uses the cluster selected by the
pysqa configuration’s cluster_primary setting and does not currently support
selecting another cluster because it neither calls switch_cluster nor exposes a
cluster-selection argument. Add this limitation to the clusters.yaml or
pysqa_config_directory guidance, or provide a supported selection mechanism if
one already exists.
- Line 1: Update the SlurmClusterExecutor example using pysqa_config_directory
to expand the home-directory shorthand before passing it to the executor. Use
os.path.expanduser on "~/.queues" and ensure os is imported in that example
context.

With `pmi_mode=\"pmix\"` the executor additionally wraps the function call in `srun --mpi=pmix -n <cores>`:\n\n```python\ndef mpi_calc(i):\n from mpi4py import MPI\n comm = MPI.COMM_WORLD\n return {\"rank\": comm.Get_rank(), \"size\": comm.Get_size(), \"input\": i}\n\nwith SlurmClusterExecutor(pmi_mode=\"pmix\", cache_directory=\"./cache\") as exe:\n future = exe.submit(\n mpi_calc, 42,\n resource_dict={\"submission_template\": submission_template, \"cores\": 4, \"partition\": \"regular\", \"run_time_max\": 120})\n print(future.result())\n```\n\nWith these options executorlib in combination with the SLURM job scheduler provides a lot flexibility to configure the submission of Python functions depending on the specific configuration of the job scheduler. \n\nIn case the submission goes wrong, for example when no submission template is defined and executorlib falls back to the default submission template a `CalledProcessError` is raised:\n\n```python\ndef echo(i):\n return i\n\nwith SlurmClusterExecutor() as exe:\n f1 = exe.submit(echo)\n print(f1.result())\n```\n\nThe error message would be something like:\n```\nCalledProcessError: Command '['sbatch', '--parsable', '/home/jovyan/executorlib_cache/echoe5873521b7330f831bed941744079e83/run_queue.sh']' returned non-zero exit status 1.\n```\n\nThis is not really helpful, as it primarily says the `sbatch` command was not successful, but the error message which `sbatch` raised on the command line is not directly accessible from Python. To access the error message you can access the exception of the future object:\n\n```python\nexcep = f1.exception()\nprint(excep.output)\n```\n\nThis gives:\n```\nsbatch: error: invalid partition specified: (null)\nsbatch: error: Batch job submission failed: Invalid partition name specified\n```\n\nSo the submission failed because no partition was provided, which can be corrected by adding the `--partition` flag in the submission template, as demonstrated above.

For the `SlurmClusterExecutor` the SLURM job identifier is stored in the cache and can be retrieved with the `get_cache_data()` function. This job identifier `queue_id` can then be passed to the SLURM [sacct](https://slurm.schedmd.com/sacct.html) command to inspect the accounting record of the job:\n\n```python\nfrom executorlib import get_cache_data\nimport subprocess\n\nfor entry in get_cache_data(cache_directory=\"./cache\"):\n if \"calc\" in str(entry[\"function\"]):\n job_id = entry[\"queue_id\"]\n print(subprocess.check_output(\n [\"sacct\", \"-j\", str(job_id), \"--format=JobID,State,AllocCPUS,Elapsed\"],\n universal_newlines=True,\n ))\n```\n\nThe `AllocCPUS` column reports the number of CPU cores SLURM allocated for the function.

As the functions are submitted as individual scheduler jobs and the results are stored on the file system, the Python process can be closed after the submission - for example to log out of the login node overnight - and the results can be reloaded later. This is controlled with the `shutdown()` method of the executor, which provides the same `wait` and `cancel_futures` parameters as the [Executor interface](https://docs.python.org/3/library/concurrent.futures.html#concurrent.futures.Executor.shutdown) of the Python standard library.\n\nTo submit a set of functions and disconnect without waiting, the executor is created without a `with` statement and `shutdown()` is called with `wait=False` and `cancel_futures=False`:\n\n```python\nfrom executorlib import SlurmClusterExecutor\n\nexe = SlurmClusterExecutor(cache_directory=\"./cache\")\nfuture_lst = [exe.submit(sum, [i, i]) for i in range(1, 4)]\nexe.shutdown(wait=False, cancel_futures=False)\n```\n\nThe submitted jobs remain in the queue of the job scheduler and continue to run. At a later point - even from a new Python process - the same functions are submitted again using the same `cache_directory`. executorlib recognises the cached results and returns them immediately instead of submitting the functions a second time:\n\n```python\nfrom executorlib import SlurmClusterExecutor\n\nwith SlurmClusterExecutor(cache_directory=\"./cache\") as exe:\n future_lst = [exe.submit(sum, [i, i]) for i in range(1, 4)]\n print([f.result() for f in future_lst])\n```\n\nThe behaviour of the `shutdown()` method is summarized in the following table:\n\n| `shutdown()` call | Effect |\n|---|---|\n| `shutdown(wait=True)` | Wait until all submitted functions are finished before continuing - this is the default and also what the `with` statement does. |\n| `shutdown(wait=False, cancel_futures=False)` | Return immediately and leave the submitted jobs running in the scheduler queue - used to disconnect from a running workflow. |\n| `shutdown(wait=False, cancel_futures=True)` | Cancel the submitted jobs which have not started or finished yet. |\n\nThis disconnect-and-reconnect capability is available for both the `SlurmClusterExecutor` and the `FluxClusterExecutor`, as both communicate via the file system rather than via sockets.","metadata":{}},{"id":"slurm-job-executor-001","cell_type":"markdown","source":"## Combine both\n\nWhile `SlurmClusterExecutor` submits each Python function as a separate `sbatch` job from the login node, the [HPC Job Executor](https://executorlib.readthedocs.io/en/latest/3-hpc-job.html) (`SlurmJobExecutor`) runs **inside** an already-running SLURM allocation and dispatches tasks as `srun` steps — no new jobs enter the queue.\n\n```python\nfrom executorlib import SlurmJobExecutor\n\n# This code runs inside an existing SLURM job\nwith SlurmJobExecutor(max_workers=4) as exe:\n futures = [exe.submit(sum, [i, i], resource_dict={\"cores\": 1}) for i in range(4)]\n print([f.result() for f in futures])\n```\n\nThe two executor types can be nested: a function submitted via `SlurmClusterExecutor` (running as an `sbatch` job) can itself create a `SlurmJobExecutor` to parallelise sub-tasks as `srun` steps within the same allocation:\n\n```python\nfrom executorlib import SlurmClusterExecutor, SlurmJobExecutor\n\ndef parallel_workflow(n):\n with SlurmJobExecutor(max_workers=n) as inner:\n futures = [inner.submit(sum, [i, i], resource_dict={\"cores\": 1}) for i in range(n)]\n return [f.result() for f in futures]\n\nwith SlurmClusterExecutor(cache_directory=\"./cache\") as outer:\n future = outer.submit(\n parallel_workflow, 4,\n resource_dict={\"cores\": 1, \"partition\": \"regular\", \"run_time_max\": 300})\n print(future.result())\n```\n\nThe `sacct` output for such a job will show the outer `sbatch` job together with numbered `srun` steps (e.g. `12345.0`, `12345.1`, …), all completing within the same allocation.\n\n| Executor | Scheduler command | Typical use |\n|---|---|---|\n| `SlurmClusterExecutor` | `sbatch` (one job per function) | Submit from login node |\n| `SlurmJobExecutor` | `srun` steps within current job | Inside an existing allocation |\n| `FluxClusterExecutor` | `flux submit` | Flux-managed allocation or local testing |","metadata":{}},{"id":"3f47fd34-04d1-42a7-bb06-6821dc99a648","cell_type":"markdown","source":"## Cleaning Cache\nFinally, as the HPC Cluster Executors leverage the file system to communicate serialized Python functions, it is important to clean up the cache directory specified by the `cache_directory` parameter once the results of the submitted Python functions are no longer needed.

As the functions are submitted as individual scheduler jobs and the results are stored on the file system, the Python process can be closed after the submission - for example to log out of the login node overnight - and the results can be reloaded later. This is controlled with the `shutdown()` method of the executor, which provides the same `wait` and `cancel_futures` parameters as the [Executor interface](https://docs.python.org/3/library/concurrent.futures.html#concurrent.futures.Executor.shutdown) of the Python standard library.\n\nTo submit a set of functions and disconnect without waiting, the executor is created without a `with` statement and `shutdown()` is called with `wait=False` and `cancel_futures=False`:\n\n```python\nfrom executorlib import SlurmClusterExecutor\n\nexe = SlurmClusterExecutor(cache_directory=\"./cache\")\nfuture_lst = [exe.submit(sum, [i, i]) for i in range(1, 4)]\nexe.shutdown(wait=False, cancel_futures=False)\n```\n\nThe submitted jobs remain in the queue of the job scheduler and continue to run. At a later point - even from a new Python process - the same functions are submitted again using the same `cache_directory`. executorlib recognises the cached results and returns them immediately instead of submitting the functions a second time:\n\n```python\nfrom executorlib import SlurmClusterExecutor\n\nwith SlurmClusterExecutor(cache_directory=\"./cache\") as exe:\n future_lst = [exe.submit(sum, [i, i]) for i in range(1, 4)]\n print([f.result() for f in future_lst])\n```\n\nThe behaviour of the `shutdown()` method is summarized in the following table:\n\n| `shutdown()` call | Effect |\n|---|---|\n| `shutdown(wait=True)` | Wait until all submitted functions are finished before continuing - this is the default and also what the `with` statement does. |\n| `shutdown(wait=False, cancel_futures=False)` | Return immediately and leave the submitted jobs running in the scheduler queue - used to disconnect from a running workflow. |\n| `shutdown(wait=False, cancel_futures=True)` | Cancel the submitted jobs which have not started or finished yet. |\n\nThis disconnect-and-reconnect capability is available for both the `SlurmClusterExecutor` and the `FluxClusterExecutor`, as both communicate via the file system rather than via sockets.","metadata":{}},{"id":"slurm-job-executor-001","cell_type":"markdown","source":"## Combine both\n\nWhile `SlurmClusterExecutor` submits each Python function as a separate `sbatch` job from the login node, the [HPC Job Executor](https://executorlib.readthedocs.io/en/latest/3-hpc-job.html) (`SlurmJobExecutor`) runs **inside** an already-running SLURM allocation and dispatches tasks as `srun` steps — no new jobs enter the queue.\n\n```python\nfrom executorlib import SlurmJobExecutor\n\n# This code runs inside an existing SLURM job\nwith SlurmJobExecutor(max_workers=4) as exe:\n futures = [exe.submit(sum, [i, i], resource_dict={\"cores\": 1}) for i in range(4)]\n print([f.result() for f in futures])\n```\n\nThe two executor types can be nested: a function submitted via `SlurmClusterExecutor` (running as an `sbatch` job) can itself create a `SlurmJobExecutor` to parallelise sub-tasks as `srun` steps within the same allocation:\n\n```python\nfrom executorlib import SlurmClusterExecutor, SlurmJobExecutor\n\ndef parallel_workflow(n):\n with SlurmJobExecutor(max_workers=n) as inner:\n futures = [inner.submit(sum, [i, i], resource_dict={\"cores\": 1}) for i in range(n)]\n return [f.result() for f in futures]\n\nwith SlurmClusterExecutor(cache_directory=\"./cache\") as outer:\n future = outer.submit(\n parallel_workflow, 4,\n resource_dict={\"cores\": 1, \"partition\": \"regular\", \"run_time_max\": 300})\n print(future.result())\n```\n\nThe `sacct` output for such a job will show the outer `sbatch` job together with numbered `srun` steps (e.g. `12345.0`, `12345.1`, …), all completing within the same allocation.\n\n| Executor | Scheduler command | Typical use |\n|---|---|---|\n| `SlurmClusterExecutor` | `sbatch` (one job per function) | Submit from login node |\n| `SlurmJobExecutor` | `srun` steps within current job | Inside an existing allocation |\n| `FluxClusterExecutor` | `flux submit` | Flux-managed allocation or local testing |","metadata":{}},{"id":"3f47fd34-04d1-42a7-bb06-6821dc99a648","cell_type":"markdown","source":"## Cleaning Cache\nFinally, as the HPC Cluster Executors leverage the file system to communicate serialized Python functions, it is important to clean up the cache directory specified by the `cache_directory` parameter once the results of the submitted Python functions are no longer needed.

pysqa 0.4.4 QueueAdapter submit_job submission_template partition GitHub
💡 Result:
In pysqa 0.4.4, the QueueAdapter.submit_job method is the primary function for submitting jobs to HPC queuing systems [1][2]. While the method signature does not include an explicit parameter named partition, users can handle partition-specific requirements, such as #SBATCH --partition=..., by utilizing the kwargs parameter [3][4]. Key details regarding submit_job and submission_template: 1. Submission Template: pysqa relies on Jinja2 templates for generating job submission scripts [1][5]. These templates can be defined in a configuration directory or dynamically [5]. 2. Customizing Partitions: If your submission_template (e.g., for SLURM) requires a partition definition, you can pass it as a keyword argument when calling submit_job [3][6]. Provided the template uses the variable (e.g., {{ partition }}), the value provided in kwargs will be rendered into the script [3][7]. 3. Method Signature: The submit_job method signature is: submit_job(queue: str | None = None, job_name: str | None = None, working_directory: str | None = None, cores: int | None = None, memory_max: int | str | None = None, run_time_max: int | None = None, dependency_list: list[int] | None = None, command: str | None = None, submission_template: str | Template | None = None, kwargs) [3][4] Users typically define the default behavior for their queues in a configuration file (queue.yaml), which can set default parameters and templates that include partition specifications [6][5]. If you need to override or specify a partition at submission time, adding it to kwargs is the intended mechanism [3][7].

Replace or parameterize the my_partition placeholder.
The example renders #SBATCH --partition=my_partition, while the following submit() call omits partition. If my_partition is not valid, sbatch rejects the job before the function runs. Use {{partition}} and pass partition in resource_dict, or state that readers must replace my_partition.

pysqa QueueAdapter cluster_primary switch_cluster configuration directory clusters.yaml
💡 Result:
In pysqa, the clusters.yaml file is used to manage configurations for multiple HPC clusters within the same configuration directory [1]. When using this approach, instead of a single queue.yaml file, you define a clusters.yaml file that maps cluster identifiers to their respective individual queue configuration files [1][2]. Structure of clusters.yaml The file should contain a cluster_primary key to specify the default cluster and a cluster dictionary mapping names to the corresponding YAML configuration files [1][2]: cluster_primary: cluster_one cluster: cluster_one: cluster_1.yaml cluster_two: cluster_2.yaml Each referenced file (e.g., cluster_1.yaml) follows the same structure as a standard queue.yaml file [1][2]. QueueAdapter Methods The QueueAdapter class provides specific methods to interact with this multi-cluster configuration [1][3]: qa.list_clusters: Lists all available clusters defined in the configuration directory [1][3]. qa.switch_cluster(cluster_name): Switches the active cluster to the one specified by cluster_name [1][3]. When configuring these files, ensure they are placed within the directory designated as the configuration directory (which defaults to ~/.queues or as specified when initializing the QueueAdapter) [1][4][5]. Note that cluster-specific configuration files should not be named queue.yaml to avoid ambiguity in the configuration loading process [2][6].

Document the cluster_primary limitation.
When clusters.yaml defines multiple clusters, QueueAdapter uses cluster_primary. PysqaSpawner does not call switch_cluster or expose a cluster-selection argument. Document this limitation or provide a supported method to select a non-primary cluster.

pysqa 0.4.4 QueueAdapter directory expanduser queue.yaml source
💡 Result:
In pysqa 0.4.4, the QueueAdapter class uses a configuration directory (specified by the directory parameter) to locate the queue.yaml file and associated Jinja2 templates [1][2][3]. The default value for this directory is /.queues [2][4][5]. When the directory path is provided to the QueueAdapter, the library utilizes Python's os.path.expanduser function internally to resolve the tilde () shortcut to the user's home directory [6]. This ensures that paths like ~/.queues are correctly expanded to the full filesystem path before the library attempts to load the configuration files [2][5]. The queue.yaml file located within this directory defines the available queuing systems, their specific configurations (such as core and memory limits), and the primary queue to be used by default [1][2].

When instantiating QueueAdapter, the directory argument specifies the path to the configuration templates [1][2]. It is standard practice to use os.path.expanduser when providing this directory path to ensure that shell-style tilde (~) expansions are correctly resolved to the user's home directory [3]. Example usage: python import os from pysqa.queueadapter import QueueAdapter # Expand the user directory path config_dir = os.path.expanduser("~/.queues") # Instantiate QueueAdapter with the expanded path qa = QueueAdapter(directory=config_dir) The pysqa library does not automatically perform expanduser on the directory argument internally in all versions; therefore, explicitly using os.path.expanduser() in your code is the recommended approach to ensure portability and correct directory resolution across different user environments [3]. As of version 0.4.4, pysqa continues to rely on standard path handling practices [4][5].

Expand pysqa_config_directory before passing it to SlurmClusterExecutor.
execute_with_pysqa() passes the value directly to pysqa.QueueAdapter(directory=...). In pysqa==0.4.4, QueueAdapter checks os.path.exists("~/.queues/queue.yaml") without expanding ~, so this example can fail with ValueError before sbatch runs. Use os.path.expanduser("~/.queues").

example using pysqa_config_directory to expand the home-directory shorthand
before passing it to the executor. Use os.path.expanduser on "~/.queues" and
ensure os is imported in that example context.
