-Note that this run combines both the illumina runs and the 454 data for banana slug. I am also experimenting with a k=35 since galt had better luck with a kmer size of 31 using SOAPdenovo than a kmer size of 23, perhaps the trend continues into larger kmers. If this doesn'​t work for whatever reason, I will also try shorter and longer kmers. ​+Note that this run combines both the illumina runs and the 454 data for banana slug.

 +We combined all fastq files into two large files representing the two read pairs. Each of these files is approximately 50GB and contain roughly 20GB of reads. Even on kolossus I am getting some out of disk space errors in the following step:
 +
 +<​code>​
 +KAligner ​  -j4 -k35 /​scratch/​galt/​bananaSlug/​slug_1.fastq /​scratch/​galt/​bananaSlug/​slug_2.fastq slugAbyss3-3.fa \
 +                |ParseAligns ​ -k35 -h lib1-3.hist \
 +                |sort -nk2,2 \
 +                |gzip >​lib1-3.pair.gz
 +</​code>​
 +
 +Near the height I have observed this is eating up about 50G of ram, but the issue appears to be in available space for the sort algorithm in kolossus'​s /tmp/ directory. I am trying this again so I can copy down the error and send it to cluster-admin because kolossus should have around 400GB free of local HD space on top of its 1.1TB of ram. (kolossus has more ram than HD space: 1.1TB of ram vs 750GB hd)
 +
 +To get around the issue of sort running out of memory in its temp directory, I found an alternate command where you can supply your own temp directory to sort. Since there is plenty of room left on the hive I issue the following command to generate the files myself. The nice thing is that since this is a makefile, once I have done this I can simply re-start the assembler, and it will see the files I have manually generated and move on to the next step.
