How to apply for time at Kebnekaise in the local rounds

  1. Go to SUPR and login (or create an account and sign the User Agreement)
  2. Click “Rounds” in the left hand side menu, then pick “Compute Rounds” and then “Centre Local Compute”. (Or go directly to Centre Local Compute Rounds)
  3. Pick “HPC2N Local Compute YYYY” and choose “Create New Proposal for HPC2N Local Compute YYYY”. (YYYY is the current year).
  4. You can either create a proposal from scratch or use an earlier proposal as a starting point.  
    1. If you have existing storage from an earlier project and wish to continue using the same directory to avoid having to move your files, do “continuation” on the existing storage.
  5. IMPORTANT: The GPU partition is now considered a separate resource, so if you need the GPUs, then you must add that as well under “Resources”.  
  6. Decide if you need more storage than the default amount (500 GB).  
    1. If that amount is enough, accept it and pick a directory name during the compute proposal.
    2. If you need more, instead apply for a local storage project in the “Storage Rounds” -> “Centre Local Storage”. Pick a name for the directory. Link it to the compute project to have the members of the compute project automatically become members of the storage project.
