What is the High Priority Queue and who may use it?
There are approximately 180000 CPU hours per month available in the High Priority Job Queue to be shared among BIO5 and Life Sciences researchers. The availability of these High Priority Queue hours is a result of the funding of a number of compute nodes by a TRIF grant written by BIO5 researchers. If you would like to have an allocation of High Priority hours, create a group as described in the next question, then contact Susan Miller (sjmiller AT email DOT arizona DOT edu). Currently there is no automatic renewal of High Priority hours and allocations are done on a case-by-case basis. For information on funding your own dedicated compute nodes within ICE, see http://anise.u.arizona.edu/HPC2/001_rc_baseplus.shtml.
