Types of allocation
Test project
- The maximum amount is 10000 node*hours on slim nodes and 2000 node*hours on fat and GPU nodes.
- The maximum allowed period to use the compute time is 8 months.
- Requests can be done at any time, and they will be processed as soon as possible.
Regular project
- This kind of allocation provides access for a period of one year.
- Requesters are required to have a track-record of research based usage of HPC platforms.
- The allocation of the available resources for regular projects follows a schedule of four months’ periods, called “allocation periods”. The three yearly allocation periods are: 1st of March to 30th of June, 1st of July to 31st of October, 1st of November to last day of February.
