 If you are new to using HPC resources and would like to learn about the principles of using the `SLURM` scheduler for submitting batch jobs, please refer to [this section](../13_tutorial_intro_hpc/04_scheduler_fundamentals.mdx). This section focuses on the specifics of the Torch cluster and assumes familiarity with the tutorial.

+:::warning Active allocation in the HPC projects portal
+An active allocation in the HPC projects portal is needed to submit any jobs on Torch. For more information on how to get one, please refer to [this section](../01_getting_started/07_hpc_project_management_portal.mdx). All job submissions must include the `--account` parameter.
