The following policies pertain to the stand-alone compute servers apart from the Linux cluster.
Please observe the following policies:
Access to the compute servers is restricted to individuals who are familiar with running batch jobs in a UNIX/Linux environment. If you are not familiar with running jobs in this way, you can contact consult@stat
.berkeley .edu. Any compute server should have at most as many jobs (across all users) as CPUs on the machine. The number of CPUs on a machine can be seen on the grafana dashboards. If you see that all CPUs are busy, do not run/start a job on that server until resources become available.
A user should not run so many simultaneous jobs on a compute server such that other users are prevented from starting jobs due to lack of resources. This policy is intended to ensure that CPU cycles and memory are used fairly and effectively. Please contact us if you need temporary or long term access to additional computing resources.
Users who do not follow these policies may be restricted from using the compute servers.
