This document is meant to cover OSG and the Cyber Infrastructure research group usage policies and guidelines.
- All access to CSE processing resources for other OSG VOs is provided on an opportunistic basis unless otherwise agreed upon
- Non-CSE VOs have a hard limit of 48 hours of wall clock time.
- If CSE staff are forced to kill running processes, we will attempt to provide warning to the affected VO.
- Under normal running conditions we will attempt to give four hours notice.
- During some running conditions we may be forced to remove processes without warning.
- CSE requests that VOs submit using Condor Grid Monitor. VOs unable to submit through grid monitor will be limited in the number of active processes allowed.
- CSE provides four storage areas: /home, /local, /scratch, and /projects.
- /localis an area for software installation shared across all worker nodes.
- /scratch is a read/write area for temporary files shared across all worker nodes. Files will be purged after 1 week.
- /home is where user home directories reside. This space as 15 Gb per user quota.
- /projects is an area for all Cyber Infrastructure specific storage.
- Samba access for windows machines is available upon special request to cse-consult. Please be sure to mention what machine you will be accessing from.
- Memebers of the CI research group should see https://wiki.cse.buffalo.edu/services/content/cyberinfrastructure.
