Hi,

Thank you for posting in Intel communities.

It is just a warning message, you can ignore that. When you want to run any scripts or binaries, make sure you run on the compute node instead of the login node.

you can access compute nodes with the below command

qsub -I

for more information please refer below documentation.

If this resolves your issue, make sure to accept this as a solution. This would help others with similar issue. Thank you!

Regards,

I ignored the message, but it is still good to have the issue resolved. It is not good practice to ignore errors and warnings. I see that as of the time of this post, the message has gone away.

This instance of the warning appears to be fixed. This thread no longer needs to be monitored by Intel.

Be advised, this is not the first time this has happened, so there may be something in the infrastructure that triggers the behavior and needs some attention. See Solved: Connection to devcloud/oneAPI via ssh: login message: "Process exceeded login node resource limit." - Intel Community for the last instance that was documented in the forums.
