To supplement the computing resources available to Darkwing users, we've built four dual processor 64-bit AMD Opteron workstations running Red Hat Linux. These are intended to play much the same role as that of our now-decommissioned cluster of Dec Unix workstations (geyser, hotspring, etc.). Home directories from Darkwing are mounted on the new Opteron cluster, as is the Darkwing /scratch directory (mounted as /darkwing-scratch). A local scratch directory (/scratch) is available for projects or storage that exceed the size of your home directory.
To learn more and to sign up for an account, Darkwing users should see the UO Computing Center Intensive Computation Resources page at http://acad-cl0.uoregon.edu/ ("acad dash cee el zero dot uoregon.edu")
