To submit a workflow and exit immediately, use the --no-wait
option. This will submit the workflow to Arvados, print out the UUID of the job that was submitted to standard output, and exit.

To run a workflow with local control, use --local
. This means that the host where you run arvados-cwl-runner
will be responsible for submitting containers, however, the containers themselves will still run on the Arvados cluster. With --local
, if you interrupt arvados-cwl-runner
or log out, the workflow will be terminated.

Use the --intermediate-output-ttl
and --trash-intermediate
options to specify how long intermediate outputs should be kept (in seconds) and whether to trash them immediately upon successful workflow completion.
Temporary collections will be trashed intermediate-output-ttl
seconds after creation. A value of zero (default) means intermediate output should be retained indefinitely.
Note: arvados-cwl-runner currently does not take workflow dependencies into account when setting the TTL on an intermediate output collection. If the TTL is too short, it is possible for a collection to be trashed before downstream steps that consume it are started. The recommended minimum value for TTL is the expected duration for the entire the workflow.
Using --trash-intermediate
without --intermediate-output-ttl
means that intermediate files will be trashed on successful completion, but will remain on workflow failure.
Using --intermediate-output-ttl
without --trash-intermediate
means that intermediate files will be trashed only after the TTL expires (regardless of workflow success or failure).
By default, the workflow runner will run on the local (home) cluster. Using --submit-runner-cluster
you can specify that the runner should be submitted to a remote federated cluster. When doing this, --project-uuid
should specify a project on that cluster. Steps making up the workflow will be submitted to the remote federated cluster by default, but the behavior of arv:ClusterTarget
is unchanged. Note: when using this option, any resources that need to be uploaded in order to run the workflow (such as files or Docker images) will be uploaded to the local (home) cluster, and streamed to the federated cluster on demand.
Preemptible instances typically offer lower cost computation with a tradeoff of lower service guarantees. If a compute node is preempted, Arvados will restart the computation on a new instance.
If the sitewide configuration Containers.AlwaysUsePreemptibleInstances
is true, workflow steps will always select preemptible instances, regardless of user option.
If Containers.AlwaysUsePreemptibleInstances
is false, you can request preemptible instances for a specific run with the arvados-cwl-runner --enable-preemptible
option.
Within the workflow, you can control whether individual steps should be preemptible with the arv:UsePreemptible hint.
If a workflow requests preemptible instances with arv:UsePreemptible , but you do not want to use preemptible instances, you can override it for a specific run with the arvados-cwl-runner --disable-preemptible
option.
