<p>The memory warning is only letting you know that the upper limit you set on memory (112 gb) was higher than the available memory.

<p>I am interested in the analysis of single-cell RNA-sequencing data.
I installed Cell Ranger according to the instruction (<a href="https://support.10xgenomics.com/single-cell-gene-expression/software/pipelines/latest/using/tutorial_in#download" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://support.10xgenomics.com/single-cell-gene-expression/software/pipelines/latest/using/tutorial_in#download</a>).
I know, it should be easy, but I found an error occurring after test running as below.</p>
<pre><code>[error] Pipestance failed. Error log at:
tiny/SC_RNA_COUNTER_CS/SC_RNA_COUNTER/_BASIC_SC_RNA_COUNTER/COUNT_GENES/fork0/chnk0-u6c389ca928/_errors
</code></pre>
<p>Within that file, it shows the following error:</p>
<pre><code>Job failed in stage code. signal: killed.
</code></pre>
<p>So, what do you think about this problem?</p>
<p>Additional information:</p>
<ul>
<li>a checksum test (to check the integrity of the downloaded files) was successful</li>
<li>I performed a test run on a personal laptop, mac.</li>
<li>I used SSH command to connect the server, but we are sharing the server with our lab members.</li>
</ul>
<p>I found an error as follows:</p>
<pre><code>WARNING: configured to use 112GB of local memory, but only 80.5GB is currently available.
</code></pre>
<p>However, at this time with unknown reasons, the installation is successfully completed, in spite of the warning. Do you have idea?</p>
<p>Thank you in advance.</p>

Hello @Goku, if you have a problem that is similar to this, but not really, open a new question, link this one and explain properly why this solution did not work for you. Posting answers as follow up questions is not the way of stack exchange :-).

# Cell Ranger) Error during performing a test run

(Asked by: username_0 on 2020-04-19)

I am interested in the analysis of single-cell RNA-sequencing data.
I installed Cell Ranger according to the instruction (https://support.10xgenomics.com/single-cell-gene-expression/software/pipelines/latest/using/tutorial_in#download).
I know, it should be easy, but I found an error occurring after test running as below.
[error] Pipestance failed. Error log at:

Within that file, it shows the following error:
Job failed in stage code. signal: killed.

So, what do you think about this problem?
Additional information:

a checksum test (to check the integrity of the downloaded files) was successful
I performed a test run on a personal laptop, mac.
I used SSH command to connect the server, but we are sharing the server with our lab members.

I found an error as follows:

However, at this time with unknown reasons, the installation is successfully completed, in spite of the warning. Do you have idea?
