Good behaviour

The cluster can be compared to an apartment building where many pepole live in their flats (the home folders), have common spaces (the master, the nodes), and need to live together. Good behaviour in the cluster, is the same as good behaviour in a flat.

• Keep your key for yourself: the password is the key to enter the cluster, i.e. in your "flat", and in "common spaces". Giving the password to other persons decreases the security of your data and of the cluster itself.
• Respect common spaces: the storage system is one for all the users. It is O.K. to use it (no "borders" are applied using disk quotas), but it is expected to leave it clean. Remove your data as soon as possible after any of your jobs have finished.
• Respect the others: jobs are scheduled by the PBS and Maui services to assure a fair sharing of the resources. Fair does not mean equal. The C3P facility is in constant evolution, with contributions of different type and different entity provided by the members of the community. Resources sharing counts for these contributions and the Maui service knows what to do. Please, do not run jobs directly on the master node or in the nodes.
