Basic SLURM example of nucleotide BLAST run against the non-redundant **nt** BLAST database with `8 CPUs` is provided below. When running BLAST alignment, it is recommended to first copy the query and database files to the **/scratch/** directory of the worker node. Moreover, the BLAST output is also saved in this directory (**/scratch/blastn_output.alignments**). After BLAST finishes, the output file is copied from the worker node to your current work directory.

**Please note that the worker nodes can not write to the */home/* directories and therefore you need to run your job from your */work/* directory.**
**This example will first copy your database to faster local storage called “scratch”. This can greatly improve performance!**
