8 compute nodes.

Maybe 1 more (former head node).

Has paid for Gaussian

Has paid for WebMO

Widom

(Collum group paid to add hard drives to all 7 of Widom's compute nodes. 12TB (= 6TB * 2) hard drive space now available on each of Widom's nodes.)

  • We expect these will be the first to get tested at CAC

Widom

Widom contributing the current head node.

8 compute nodes.

  • All 8 nodes have 12 TB hard drives (2*6T) for each node, paid for by Collum.
    • Extra hard drive space of value only to the Collum group.

*Special queue: Queue was created and for use by a single member of Widom's group to enable their research without consuming 100% of Widom's nodes.

...

Q: Enable WebMO for groups other than Collum? If so, add column with nodes enabled.

Q: Enable Back-in-Time, for versioning? If so, how provision and who pays what? (Does CAC have better options, if cluster is hosted there?)

Q: Backing up user accounts and other research data? If beyond Collum's group, how provision and who pays what? (Does CAC have better options, if cluster is hosted there?)

Know issues:

Q: How do we prevent individual from bringing shared head node to its needs by running an application directly on the head node, instead of using queues? (Does CAC have suggestions?)
