FAQ
How do I acknowlege my usage of M3?
I can't start a Strudel desktop
If you see an error message including Disk quota exceeded, you have almost certainly filled
up your home directory. Strudel needs to write to files in your home directory, so if you
have used up all of your home storage quota, then Strudel will
fail. See Run over your storage quota? for cleaning up your home directory
to resolve this.
Why is my job pending?
M3 uses the Slurm fair-share scheduler. Your job is given a priority and placed in a queue. You can view the anticipated start time of your job with squeue
squeue --start -u $USER
However a N/A start time means that the scheduler has not yet found an available slot for your job.
You can not change your position in the queue. If you are waiting for a long time, please examine previous jobs (See here) and check that you are asking for the correct amount of resources. You should not request more in your Slurm request than what your job will actually use.
