Goals, general principles, and observations considered by the HPCC-AAC:
- Allocation approvals include total compute-hours and allowable queues.
- Preference is given to big, parallel jobs (and development/testing to prepare these.)
- All serial jobs must be submitted via qsub -q serial, have low priority, are preempted.
- Special requests are considered in exceptional cases.
- Installed software base and versioning are controlled by the HPCC-AAC.
- Jobs with very large data and/or setup times may need additional considerations, tools.
- Some researchers will need assurance of security for their data on the cluster.
- Grants requiring a security checklist should contact the HPCC-AAC.
