Bowtie2 index

Question

[aranyak111]

I am trying to build a Bowtie index from scratch. I have made a local installation of Bowtie in my cluster. The commands I have used to build a local index is "/gpfs/ycga/scratch60/nicoli/ag2646/Bowtie 2.4.2/bowtie2-2.4.2-linux-x86_64/"bowtie2-build "/gpfs/ycga/scratch60/nicoli/ag2646/Bowtie 2.4.2/bowtie2-2.4.2-linux-x86_64/genome.fa" human . The reference genome.fa is NCBI GrCHr38 build.

However, in place of 6 index files, I am getting only 4 .bt2 files but no rev.bt2 files. The terminal window shows Building a SMALL index Reading reference sizes

How to generate all 6 index files to build a proper index.

Is that all output? The actual log from bowtie2 is hundreds of lines long. Maybe it crashed, how much memory is available on the machine, and did the job finish without errors? Yes, human genome is "small" in this context.

The program did not crash and the shell script window display these information sit idly and ultimately just generate the 4 files.
