 There are 6 queues ("partitions") on the Kraken cluster, divided by job run length (express, short, long) and cluster partition ("Mxxx" and "Lxxx"). If the user does not specify a queue with the ``-````-partition`` switch, the default value (Mexpress) is used: There are 6 queues ("partitions") on the Kraken cluster, divided by job run length (express, short, long) and cluster partition ("Mxxx" and "Lxxx").
