+Containers can be dispatched to a SLURM cluster. The dispatcher sends work to the cluster using SLURM's @sbatch@ command, so it works in a variety of SLURM configurations.
In order to run containers, you must run the dispatcher as a user that has permission to set up FUSE mounts and run Docker containers on each compute node. This install guide refers to this user as the @crunch@ user. We recommend you create this user on each compute node with the same UID and GID, and add it to the @fuse@ and @docker@ system groups to grant it the necessary permissions. However, you can run the dispatcher under any account with sufficient permissions across the cluster.
