Hello community, I have got access to Seqera cloud. Now I want to create jobs and run on my local machine. My local machine consisted of two NVIDIA GPU’s capable of performing heavy tasks. I want to configure compute environment for my local machine rather than cloud service providers as Stanford has firewall etc. How can I configure it? Thanks ---

Did the firewall block running your pipeline with `-with-tower` and having `TOWER_ACCESS_TOKEN` set as an environment variable? ---

2 options: 1. Install a scheduler on your local machine (e.g. Slurm) and then add it as an HPC 2. Run `nextflow run -with-tower` as @mribeirodantas says Option 1 is better because the scheduler will make sure the machine isn’t overloaded, but it is more work.
