This page lists resource quotas for the AIC cluster users.

Everyone has a disk quota set (the default is 50G as of Jan 2020).

You can find out the quota and your current disk usage by running

lfs quota -h /lnet/aic

For group students, there is a limit of 30 CPUs on all jobs.
- Note that Slurm always allocates CPUs in multiples of 2 (i.e., whole cores in the Slurm terminology), which means members of the students group can have at most 15 running Slurm jobs.
