Check the GPU assignments before you submit your jobs to GPUs. Check here for how to check the workloads. Never overload any machines.

Storage Space:

• The shared network disk (with backup) is located at /cs/research/asr.

• Each of the above machines has a local disk space (several TB's each) at /local (without any backup). In addition, more local disk space can be accessed from Linux directory /tmp.
  1. text: /local/scratch (6 TB)
  2. video: /local/scratch (6 TB); /local/scratch1 (6 TB)
  3. music: /local/scratch (2 TB); /local/scratch1 (6 TB)
  4. language: /local/scratch (1 TB)
  5. voice: /local/scratch (1 TB); /local/scratch1 (2 TB)
  6. audio: /local/scratch (1 TB)
  7. speech1 to speech7: /local/scratch (500 GB each).
