Running and Verification

Procedure

  1. Use PuTTY to log in to the server as the root user.
  2. Go to the working directory.
    cd /path/to/CASE
  3. Obtain the test case.
    wget https://ftp.sra.ebi.ac.uk/vol1/fastq/ERR104/008/ERR1044518/ERR1044518_1.fastq.gz
    wget https://ftp.sra.ebi.ac.uk/vol1/fastq/ERR104/008/ERR1044518/ERR1044518_2.fastq.gz
    wget https://ftp.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/genomes/all/GCA/000/001/405/GCA_000001405.15_GRCh38/seqs_for_alignment_pipelines.ucsc_ids/GCA_000001405.15_GRCh38_full_analysis_set.fna.gz -O hs38DH.fasta
  4. Decompress the test case file.
    gzip -d ERR1044518_1.fastq.gz
    gzip -d ERR1044518_2.fastq.gz
  5. Create an index file.
    bwa index -a bwtsw hs38DH.fasta
  6. Perform the test.
    bwa mem -t 128 hs38DH.fasta ERR1044518_1.fastq ERR1044518_2.fastq > bwa.sam 2 > bwa_log

    The number 128 indicates the number of used cores. You can change the number according to the server configuration.

    Check the value of Real time (unit: s) in the bwa_log log. A smaller value indicates higher performance.
