Sun Computing Resource

The Sun Computing Resource consists of 16 single-processor Sun Netra systems running Solaris; only single-node jobs are allowed. This resource should only be used for legacy Solaris programs for which no equivalent Linux program exists.

Almaak-01(Almaak)

Almaak-01 is a login host that should be used only for editing, compiling, and submitting batch jobs to be run on the Netras listed below. Processes on almaak-01 will be terminated after 30 minutes of CPU time. You must submit longer-running jobs to the Portable Batch System (PBS). For large memory jobs, see Linux Computing Resources.
