Group members have access to several clusters, generally separate from each other:

Cluster ID Description How to get started sge-CPU-cores Our disk space Notes
Cluster 0 Legacy UCSF cluster Therese 600 20 TB Will shrink in 2014 as equipment is transferred to Cluster 2.
Cluster 1 Toronto Cluster Therese 448 40 TB Ask the sysadmins about this cluster for important information.
Cluster 2 New UCSF cluster Teague 448 120 TB We are just starting to get people to use this cluster. Patience please!
Cluster 3 UCSF Shared Cluster Teague -> Josh 3500 120 TB Shared UID space! cross mounted disks!

Access to clusters is only from secure machines.

Commercial cloud clusters are also available:

  • Amazon cloud EC2, which we affectionately refer to as Cluster 5
  • Google cloud, which we call Cluster 6.

Need advice about which cluster to use? Ask the sysadmins.
