Job charging based on usage
OSC offers the use of budgets to limit the amount of charges incurred on projects.
Active budget
Once a budget has been approved, it (and the project it was requested from) becomes active. Having an active project allows users on that project to submit batch jobs to use OSC resources.
It is useful to take a look at usage over periods of time and calculate overall usage at osc. This page explains how to do this using the HPC Job Activity tool in my.osc.edu
After logging into the client portal, navigate to Individual -> HPC Job Activity.

There are different requirements for being able to charge OSC usage towards a grant. This page aims to provide general guidelines, but actual requirements may be different. Contact OSC help if there are specific questions/needs.
