Asking the Admins for Help

You can email the admins for help, but first, look at this checklist:

  1. Are you running on chead instead of nodes?
  2. Is it a memory issue? See the FAQ.
  3. Have you checked with your colleagues if they use the same or similar scripts or tools?
  4. Is your disk quota full? Use df -h /data/<path-to-my-data-directory> to check.

Please send this info to the admin in your email:

  • What username are you running as?
  • Are you on chead or a compute node?
  • Are you using qlogin or qsub?
  • Include the command you ran?
  • Include the output of the command and full error messages, or include the link to output files that show what's happened (i.e. for qsub, the .e and .o files).
  • What did you expect to happen?
  • Has this worked before? If so, when? On the same data set or exact data?
