Quickest way to get here in NIM:
My Stuff Menu -> My Account Usage

This area can be navigated by the tabs located at the top of the Results (bottom) frame.

Account Usage

The Account Usage Summary shows MPP and HPSS usage by the user, and user status for the PDSF.

image Example Display

When your mouse is moved over a column heading, a brief description is displayed.

Certain fields (such as Repo) are also web links (usually displayed underlined and in a contrasting color.) For example, click on a repository name for detailed information about that repository.

The columns in the Account Usage Summary Are:

Resrc
Resource: HPSS, MPP, PDSF
Repo
The repository name. This is a link to information about the repository, its associated project, and its users.
Login
The user's Login Name (username).
Login Type
Type of login name: standard, reserved, login to NIM only, etc.
User Hrs Used
SP Hours Used.
User Charged
User Charged is the product Hours Used and the Priority Charge Factor (1.0 for regular, 2.0 for premium, 0.5 for low.) for this login name. For HPSS User Charged means the SRUs charged by the user to this repo,
Avg CF (Average Charge Factor - MPP only)
The ratio of Hours Charged to Hours Used. NERSC users are expected to keep this ratio below a value of 1.2
% Used (User Percent Used)
The percentage of the repository's total allocation that has been charged to this login name.
% Allowed (User Percent Allowed)
The percentage of the repository's allocation this login name is allowed to use (also known as the User Quota).
User Balance
The MPP hours or SRUS remaining (balance) that this login name can charge to this repository for this fiscal year.
Base Repo? (MPP only)
This is the user's "preferred" repo and is the user's default repo so long as the user balance in this repo is positive. If the user balance is negative and if the user has other repos to charge to, then the user's current default repo is (temporarily) set to a different repo. Should the user balance (in the user's base repo) become positive again, the user's default repo will be set back to the base repo. See the Dflt Now? settings to determine the user's current default repo.
Dflt Now? (MPP only)
If "Y," this repository will be charged by default when the login name runs a compute job.
Repo User Status
The login status for this login name in this repository:
Active
The user is a member of the repo and has a positive user balance in that repo.
Restricted
The user is a member of the repo but has a negative user balance in that repo.
Limited
The user is no longer a member of the repo but still has limited access to its resources.
Deleted
The user has been removed from this repo.
Admin Member
The user is an administrative member (PI, PI Proxy or Project Manager) of the project who doesn't use this resource.
SRU Files, SRU Space, SRU I/O (HPSS only)
SRU Files + SRU Space + SRU I/O = SRUs Charged. These are year-to-date totals. In the case of SRU Files and SRU Space, they are the sum of the daily averages. For more information, see NERSC HPSS Charging.
Proj % (HPSS only)
The percent of the user's total SRUs to charge to this repo. See Apportioning User SRUs to Repositories: Project Percents.

The columns in the Current HPSS Usage Are:

Login
The user's Login Name (username).
HPSS Login Status - one of:
Active
The login name is in a normal active state with no restrictions. The login name can read and write data.
Restricted
The login name is restricted because it has no repo to charge to. The login name can read data from HPSS but cannot write to HPSS.
Disabled
The login name has been temporarily disabled.
Limited
The login name is restricted because the user is no longer a member of any active repository. The login name can read data from HPSS but cannot write to HPSS. On HPSS a login name remains limited for about one year prior to being deactivated.
Deactivated
The login name has been disabled and its HPSS files can be archived to the "crypt". The login name no longer has access to HPSS.
Crypt
The login name's files have been moved to the crypt and may be deleted at any time. This has not yet been implemented.
Deleted
The login name has been removed from HPSS.
Files
The current total number of files stored in HPSS associated with this login.
Space
The current total amount of space used in HPSS associated with this login.
Total I/O
The total amount of I/O associated with this login that has been done year-to-date.

Logins by Host

Example Display

login host

The columns in Login Names by Host are:

UID
The identification number for the user.
Host
The host (machine) name.
Login
The Login Name (username).
Host User Status
The status of the login name on this host:
Active
The login name is in a normal active state with no restrictions.
Restricted
The login name is restricted because it has no repo to charge to. On compute systems restricted users are able to log in, but cannot submit batch jobs, or run parallel jobs, or run lengthly interactive programs. For HPSS restricted users are able to read data from HPSS but cannot write any data to HPSS.
Disabled
The login name has been disabled (the user cannot login or connect). The most common reason for this is lack of a signed User Policy Form.
Limited
The login name is restricted because the user is no longer a member of any active repository. On compute systems the user will be in a restricted status for one month, during which time they should delete files that are no longer needed and move needed files to their home system or to an active area of HPSS. After one month the user's login name will be disabled on the compute system. For HPSS the user will remain restricted for a year, during which time they can read data from HPSS but cannot write to HPSS. After one year the HPSS login name will be disabled.
Deactivated
The login name has been disabled because the user is no longer active at NERSC.
Archived (MPP only)
The login name's files have been archived to HPSS.
Crypt (HPSS only)
The login name's HPSS files have been moved to an area called "the crypt" and may be deleted at any time. This has not yet been implemented.
Deleted
The login name has been removed from the system.
Default Filegrp
The default filegroup.
Base Repo (MPP only)
The repo the user has selected to be their default repo for charging purposes: if the user does not specify a repo to charge to, this is the one that will normally be used. However, if the user has run out of time in this repo, a different repo (where the user has time) may be the current default. Note that this column does not apply to HPSS or PDSF login names.
Default Now (MPP only)
The current default repository for charging purposes. Generally, this is the same as the Base Repo unless the user has run out of time in their Base Repo. In all cases, this is the repo that is used by default for charging purposes (when the user does not specify a specific repo for the compute job). Note that this column does not apply to HPSS or PDSF login names.
