Black Hole Initiative (BHI) Partitions

Overview

The Black Hole Initiative (BHI) has purchased their own partitions on the FASRC cluster.  These partitions are open to BHI members and their allocation is governed by the relative fairshare of the groups.  A dashboard showing the relative allocations can be found here (RC VPN or Harvard network required).  The partitions are broken down into the following:

• blackhole: 1920 cores of water cooled Intel Cascade Lake, each node has 48 cores and 184 GB of RAM on the HDR Infiniband fabric.  This partition has no timelimit.
• blackhole_priority: Overlaps the blackhole partition.  This partition is for priority work only and users must ask permission of the BHI faculty prior to running. Jobs in this partition will run ahead of jobs on the blackhole partition regardless of the users fairshare score.  This partition has no time limit.
