Increases in a project’s compute time require the approval of the appropriate DOE allocation manager(s). Mistakes in this process can unnecessarily delay or even prevent awards. To streamline the process, NERSC has created a new Computing Time Increase Request form (login required). The new form standardizes the information requested and automatically generates a request that goes to the appropriate allocation manager(s). If your project runs low on time, the project PI, or one of their proxies, may request additional time by submitting the form. To access the form, log into the NERSC Help Desk, click the “Open Request” icon, then select the Computing Time Increase Request from the Request Forms menu. Fill in the form with the project, type of node hours requested (CPU or GPU), number of node hours, and a justification for the additional time being requested. When you submit the form, it will be assigned to the appropriate DOE allocation manager for review.
