Scientific Computing Facilities Resource Monitoring

This page contains links to information on current resource usage by users of our Scientific Computing Facilities, particularly the IBM Blue Gene, IBM pSeries (p690 and p655) systems, Katana Cluster, and the Linux Cluster.

Those without current accounts on our facilities can read about them and if you are interested in getting access to them find application forms here. Current Principal Investigators looking to add new users, request more CPU time or disk space, or renew their projects should also go here.

• Individuals can see a report on their CPU and /project Disk usage. These pages will also allow you to update your user information such as your email address and to change your default project on the SCF systems. (password-protected by SCF [i.e. Twister] login name and password).
• Principal Investigators can review all their projects or look at a history of usage on individual projects by project name.

Brief instructions on monitoring your account/project

Users can see a report on their CPU and /project Disk usage and access and update additional personal information

Users should go here (which will require entering your SCF [i.e. Twister] login name and password when requested) and select your login id from the (long) list (you should not have to enter your login/password a second time). Once you reach your own area, you will have a number of choices. You will be able to look up CPU and /project Disk usage for all projects you are a member of. You will also be able to update or change your personal information such as email address and phone number. These pages will also enable you to change your default project if you are a member of more than one SCF project. Finally, you will be able to see a recent and long-term usage report.

Seeing past monthly reports for one of your projects

Principal Investigator should go here, select your login id from the list, enter your SCF (i.e. Twister) login name and password when requested, and select "Examine past monthly allocation reports on this project" under the appropriate project. All of your monthly reports from recent months are shown here for your inspection. This is the same material sent of Principal Investigators via email each month.
