Reserving computer resources

Please email Eric (emarty@uga.edu) for access to the computer reservation calendar.

Scheduling long jobs on Drake Lab Computers

Long jobs are those that:

  • Exceed 12 hours (no matter how many cores/memory is used)
  • Exceed 1 hour (if more than 10% of cores/memory are used)

To schedule long jobs (see) on shared Drake Lab computers, please make sure there are available resources on that computer during those times and then edit this google calendar with:

  • Your name
  • Computer you will use
  • How many cores you need
  • Duration of time you will need

For example, Paige wants to use 24 cores of the post-doc/grad-student high memory machine for a job that she thinks will require around 10 days to finish, so she adds an event to the google calendar named "Paige job on post-doc high memory machine using 24/32 cores" and sets the dates from Dec 11 - Dec 20.

If a job is urgent, you can email the person with a reservation on the computer and ask them if it's possible for them to pause their job.
