In pursuit of ACCRE mission and goals, ACCRE staff have been working with a group of investigators to determine ACCRE staff has worked with a group of investigators to determine option for contributing and using the cluster. ACCRE is committed to meeting the needs of researchers with a diverse set of funding restraints and requirements.
Usage rights on the cluster are currently driven by fairshare allocations. These allocations are based on the number of computer cores paid for with a purchase or service fee option. Job scheduler policies help insure that all researchers then receive their fair use of the cluster.
Finally, for optimal cluster operating efficiency, disk space must be managed carefully and efficiently. Please familiarize yourself with the ACCRE disk quota and backup policies. In addition to cluster storage and backup, ACCRE offers remote storage services to Vanderbilt departments and laboratories regardless of whether they also use the cluster.
