disk

The disk directive defines the amount of disk storage required by each task execution. For example:

process hello {
    disk 2.GB

    script:
    """
    your_command --here
    """
}

The following suffixes can be used to specify disk values:

• B: Bytes
• KB: Kilobytes
• MB: Megabytes
• GB: Gigabytes
• TB: Terabytes

See MemoryUnit for more information.

note

The disk directive is only used by certain executors. Refer to the Executors page to see which executors support this directive.
