I hope John can give some more input on this, but if you're really short on time you could try the ssh runner directly from galaxy without pulsar. I'm very happy with this driving a Torque 4 cluster. The relevant part of my job_conf.xml looks like this: ``` <destination id="bicalc" runner="cli"> <param id="shell_plugin">SecureShell</param> <param id="job_plugin">Torque</param> <param id="shell_username">myusername</param> <param id="shell_hostname">submitnode.curie.fr</param> <param id="job_Resource_List">walltim e=2:00:00,nodes=1:ppn=8,mem=32gb</param> <param id="remote_metadata">true</param> <env file="/bioinfo/guests/mvandenb/galaxy/.venv/bin/activate" /> </destination> ``` You'll only have to be able to do a passwordless ssh login using your galaxy user.

I've tried to set it up so that Pulsar does not do any staging, but is just handling the remote job submission and tool dependencies. However, Pulsar continues to use a local staging directory for the data and then copies the data back to the Galaxy directory. What I'm hoping to do is have all the data stay in the shared filesystem for the entire course of the job. The quick test below does not have input data, but just issues commands on the remote compute node and generates output. I'm using latest stable releases of Galaxy (16.07, installed on a TACC VM) and Pulsar (installed via pip at PSC). If anyone can provide some quick pointers I'd appreciate it.
