[Gimle-users] Nodes moved from Gimle to Bore, and a hint for Gimle users

[kent at nsc.liu.se]

NODES MOVED FROM GIMLE TO BORE

  As decided today at the site meeting, 32 nodes have been moved from
  Gimle to Bore, extendning the latter system to 56 nodes (n[1-56]).
  There are 84 nodes left on Gimle (n[57-140]).


A REMINDER ABOUT THE JOB TIME LIMIT FLAG

  We would like to remind Gimle users to use the "-t" sbatch flag to
  specify the job time limit. If you don't use "-t", you get the maximum
  job time limit (currently 6 days).

  Specifying an accurate job time limit helps your colleagues (and the
  sysadmins at NSC) to get a better picture of the future job load on
  the system. As the system gets more utilised it may also affect the
  job scheduling.

  Of course, you should never specify a too short job time limit,
  as that will result in your job being killed before its done.

  See the sbatch man page for information on the acceptable time
  formats.



Sincerely,
--
