(*) Including purchases of additional SUs for an FCA.

(**) Note that savio3 nodes (including the various bigmem, GPU, etc. nodes) are not yet available for use by FCAs or ICAs.

QoS Configurations for Savio Condos

One can determine the resources available for a Condo by examining the Savio QoS configurations. This invocation prints out relevant information

CGRL Scheduler Configuration

The clusters uses the SLURM scheduler to manage jobs. When submitting your jobs via sbatch or srun commands, use the following SLURM options:

  • The settings for a job in Vector (Note: you don't need to set the "account"): --partition=vector --qos=vector_batch
  • The settings for a job in Rosalind (Savio2 HTC): --partition=savio2_htc --account=co_rosalind --qos=rosalind_htc2_normal

Alert

To check which QoS you are allowed to use, simply run "sacctmgr -p show associations user=$USER"

Here are the details for each CGRL partition and associated QoS.
