Free Access

Farm and Hive both provide free/sponsored access to a limited amount of resources.

Farm

See here for instructions to request access to the free/sponsored resources for Farm.

Slurm account name adamgrp

• Partition high2: the entire group has combined access to 352 CPUs and 768 GB of RAM.
• Partition high: the entire group has combined access to 192 CPUs and 500 GB of RAM.

Slurm account name gpul-users

• Partition: gpul: provides access to currently idle GPUs.

  • Each job is limited to a maximum of:

    • 1 day (1-00) of runtime
    • 1 node

  • You can access these resources by adding --account=gpul-users --partition=gpul --gpus=1 to your srun or sbatch command.

  • If you require a specific type of GPU, you can request with --gpus=TYPE:1. The available types are: a100, a5500, titan, and v100.

Hive

Slurm account name publicgrp

• Partition high: the entire group has combined access to 128 CPUs, 2000 GB of RAM, and 4 GPUs (NVIDIA A6000s).

  • Each job is limited to a maximum of:

    • 8 CPUs
    • 128 GB of RAM
    • 1 GPU

  • You can access these resources by adding --account=publicgrp --partition=high to your srun or sbatch command.

• Partition low: This partition allows access to all the unused resources in the cluster. The downside is that when a job is submitted to high that needs these resources, your job will be killed and requeued. Unless your job can do automatic check-pointing and restarting, all progress is lost when the job is killed.

  • Each job is limited to a maximum of:

    • 3 days (3-00) of runtime
    • 1 node

  • You can access these resources by adding --account=publicgrp --partition=low to your srun or sbatch command.

On Hive, every user is automatically a member of publicgrp and has access. You may need to add --account=publicgrp to Slurm jobs to access these resources.
