When submitting a jobs to the scheduler on a cluster, users will need to specify a group name as the value of the <code>--account</code> option. Jobs pertaining to the research described in the RAC application should be submitted with the group name corresponding to the RAC award, ''e.g.'' <code>--account=rrg-somename-ab</code>. Jobs pertaining to other research should be submitted with the default group name, ''e.g.'' <code>--account=def-somename</code>. See [[Running_jobs#Accounts_and_projects|Running jobs: Accounts and projects]] for more details. | When submitting a jobs to the scheduler on a cluster, users will need to specify a group name as the value of the <code>--account</code> option.

A <code>/project</code> storage allocation on one of the Compute Canada clusters is allocated as a directory of the form <code>/project/<group-name></code>, ''e.g.'' <code>/project/rrg-somename-ab</code>, and an associated quota defining the amount of data that can be stored in the directory. Files pertaining to the research described in the RAC application should be stored there by all sponsored users. More guidance on the use of <code>/project</code> space can be found at [[Project layout]] and [[Sharing data]]. | A <code>/project</code> storage allocation on one of the Compute Canada clusters is allocated as a directory of the form <code>/project/<group-name></code>, ''e.g.'' <code>/project/rrg-somename-ab</code>, and an associated quota defining the amount of data that can be stored in the directory.
