Based on the exchange with Tatyana, I suggest that we add 50,000 hours to HEIGHTS-3D. ----------------------------------------- Ray Bair Argonne National Laboratory On 1/17/17, 12:12 PM, "Tatyana Sizyuk" <[email protected]> wrote: Ray, I really don't understand why my allocation finished so fast. I did much more calculations during the first quarter having the same allocation. Is it possible to allocate additional hours, e.g., 50000?

Confirming that you have only 8.5K hours left in your allocation, usable through 3/30/17.

Dear Ray,
Thank you. I have still 95,750 hours for current quarter, right?
Just "lcrc-qbank -q balance" showed me 8,486 core-hours balance and, therefore, I worried about my allocation expiration.
Sincerely,
Tatyana

Dear Tatyana Sizyuk,
Here are your previously approved allocations for the first 2 quarters:
Q1: 95,750 any unused time expired 12/31/16
Q1: 100,000 additional time requested, unused time expired 12/31/16
Q2: 95,750 expires 3/31/17

Dear Ray,
Thank you for the reply.
I will appreciate very much any help regarding my jobs on Blues.
Unfortunately, I have left now only 8,500 core-hours and I don't understand why it's so small allocation since I did not use Blues much during January.
May be, my allocation for the second quarter of FY was reduced?
Thank you again,
Tatyana Sizyuk

This is the reason also that we did not use all allocated time for our project, so we tried to concentrate our work on models development and optimization using small server system. We hope to get higher priority in near future to use developed codes on fast Blues cluster. We depend highly on the use of this cluster since our comprehensive packages could not run efficiently on other systems with insufficient computer resources. > > > We would like to request 450,000 allocation hours to conduct various optimizations, benchmarking, and parametric studies of the HEIGHTS 3D packages for several projects during FY2017. > ~20% of the allocation will be for non-parallel jobs > Current: undetermined amount > Justification: > > Requested: 100000 > > A specific reason has been given: > Unfortunately, we could not use additional allocated time which we requested in December due to high workload of Blues at this time. > We would like to ask more core-hours for our project now to simulate and optimize calculations of multi-laser systems. > Sincerely, > Tatyana Sizyuk > > This needs to be approved and the final allocation amount decided upon. > > Thank You, > The LCRC Accounts System > _______________________________________________ > allocations-admins mailing list > [email protected] > https://lists.lcrc.anl.gov/mailman/listinfo/allocations-admins > > > >
