A page instructing RAC winners how to go about using their new allocation on Compute Canada systems.
Introduction
RAC recipients will be notified shortly before the new RAC year (usually first week in April) of the results of their RAC award.
The awards are implemented at the beginning of the RAC year, and recipients can begin to use their awards.
Accounts
TBD: something about RAPI's and account names.
Sponsored Users
TBD: something about adding sponsored users.
Running Jobs
Jobs to be run under the RAC accounts (RAP) will need to specify the account. See Running_jobs for details.
Using allocated /project storage
A /project storage allocation on one of the GP (general purpose) systems is allocated as a directory of the form /project/<project name>. This directory can be shared with the PIs sponsored users. For details see Project_layout.
Using a Cloud Allocation
