When a user is notified that his Cray disk space is nearing its limit, the user must move files to the mss directory. Users are encouraged to keep backups of their work as Cray home directories and UniTree files are not backed up to tape. Standard Cray accounting is now used rather than proprietary software. The CPU quotas are actual Cray CPU time quotas, and the system will prohibit additional log in sessions when these quotas are exceeded. Batch jobs will also terminate when CPU quotas have been exceeded.
Regular users can determine their current CPU quota by typing usage -c .
Recorded Hour quotas can be obtained by typing usage with no arguments. Checking your Recorded Hours before submitting large jobs will help to avoid wasted processor hours.
