The string passed to the option --job-name name appears in the field Name in the output of the command squeue.
Email relating to the job will be send to the address specified by the option --mail-user. The job events which cause an email to be generated are specified via the option --mail-type.
The option --mem specifies the maximum amount of memory required in MB per node. This should always be given, since the default value is only 1 MB per CPU, which will not be enough for many jobs.
The option --time specifies the maximum amount of wall-clock time required by the job. If this is not given, the default value for the partition will apply and the job will not be able to benefit from backfilling.
