MCZ staff – Running jobs
We have created a special group for MCZ staff to allow them to run jobs with proper accounting in place. This group is managed by Brendan Haley and will require a couple of steps in order to be able to submit cluster jobs under it. You will need an existing FASRC account to do so.
- Request membership (aka Grant) in the mczcompute_lab group via the Portal
- Type mcz in the search box and you will see an option that begins with ‘Special lab group to allow MCZ staff…’ Click the box to select this grant.
- If you also see ‘FASRC cluster access, including Slurm job submission’ this means you do not have cluster access currently. Click the box to also select this grant.
- In the Add Grants popup window, click ‘Request Selected’
- Your request will need to be approved by Brendan before proceeding.
- Once you receive a confirmation email that you have been added, please email rchelp@rc.fas.harvard.edu and say
“I have been approved for access to run MCZ compute jobs. Please change my default group tomczcompute_lab
. Please ensure I remain a member of whatever group was previously my primary group.“ - Once FASRC replies that this is complete, you will be able to submit jobs. Our documentation contains many helpful articles on this and other topics: FASRC DOCS
For additional information or guidance, please reach out to Brendan Haley.
