 ====== PICSL-cluster Transition Guide ======
-welcome to the CfN cluster. This document will be filled out shortly with more details.
+Welcome to the CfN cluster!
 Here is some info regarding your transition to the CfN cluster:
+===== Using the CfN Cluster =====
+See the [[start|other pages]] of this wiki for details on using the CfN cluster. This page is only to learn about differences between the PICSL and CfN clusters.
 ===== Usernames and Passwords =====
 Your username should be the same as on the PICSL cluster.

   ls -a ~
+**BUT, DO NOT** simply copy your .bashrc or .bash_profile file from your old home dir to your new one. You must look in the file and copy selected parts manually.
 ===== Data Drives =====
@@ Line 43: / Line 49: @@
 This differs from the PICSL cluster data quotas, which are //per-user//. For now, quotas for the PICSL drives (/data/picsl, /data/tesla-data, /data/tesla-home) will remain unchanged, and per-user. At some point we'll merge these into per-project quotas for better management.
+===== Front-end Program/Process Limits =====
+Programs/commands/jobs/processes that are run on the front-end itself (chead) are limited to using 5GB of RAM, and 5 minutes of CPU time (not realworld time), at which point they are terminated. See [[ClusterBasics | Cluster Basics]]
+===== Slots, Cores & Memory =====
+The CfN cluster handles slots, cores and memory differently. On PICSL, if you requested more slots, you got both more memory and more cpu cores. On CfN, the requests for these resources are separate. Please see [[using_ogs_sge#resources_memory_slots_cpu_cores|the details]] CfN cluster guide in the rest of the wiki.
 ===== Symlinks =====
 You may have symlinks in your PICSL data/home directories. These will need to be changed.
