### 9.4.2. Creating a Batch Job Submission Queue in EKM

In addition to synchronizing job submission queues with RSM, you can create batch job submission queues directly in EKM. When you do so, the queue will be added to the queues.rsmq file in RSM, creating an RSM queue. The queue will be associated with an existing cluster configuration and cluster queue defined in RSM.

To create a batch job submission queue in EKM:

1. Go to Administration/Servers/Master.

2. Select (New) > Batch Job Submission Queue.

3. In the New Batch Job Submission Queue dialog box, specify the following settings:

   Queue name

     The RSM queue name to be displayed in EKM. If this is not specified, the actual cluster queue name will be displayed instead.

   Cluster configuration name

     Select the existing RSM cluster configuration with which the RSM queue will be associated. For general information about cluster configurations, see Defining Cluster Configurations in the RSM User's Guide.

   Cluster queue name

     The actual cluster queue to which jobs will be submitted when this queue is selected in EKM. This is required for all cluster types except ANSYS RSM Cluster (ARC) and Microsoft HPC. If left blank for either of these cluster types, the cluster queue name will default to `Local`.

   Automatically load default application definitions

     Enable this check box if you want to automatically load the default applications defined in the `EKM_HOME/conf/jobSubmissionApplications` folder.
