Using a resource allocation
This is not a complete article: This is a draft, a work in progress that is intended to be published into an article, which may or may not be ready for inclusion in the main wiki. It should not necessarily be considered factual or authoritative.
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.
Using a Compute Allocation on a cluster
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) or LP (large parallel) systems is allocated as a directory of the form /project/rrg-<PI name>. This directory can be shared with the PIs sponsored users. For details see Project_layout.
Note that the PI also has the RAS (default) project space of the form /project/def-<PI name>. The PI may want to copy or move data from that default to the allocated /project directory.
Using a Cloud Allocation
TBD
- Links to terms of service and acceptable use should be included.
- Links to cloud getting started.
