[NLPL Task Force (A)] [CSC #354706] CSC registration

Thu Aug 1 13:02:53 UTC 2019

Hi Stephan, 

Our NLPL wiki says: 

" For Taito, each NLPL member site can be allocated its ‘own’ project, and CSC tends to make smaller allocations more frequently. The Steering Group has yet to develop a policy for how to make sure that the sum of these micro-allocations fit (fairly) within the bounds of the ‘blanket’ allocation of three million core hours over three years granted to NLPL as the CSC in-kind contribution." 

[ http://wiki.nlpl.eu/index.php/Infrastructure/resources | http://wiki.nlpl.eu/index.php/Infrastructure/resources ] 

I looked up the original agreement and you are right, we pledged "up to 3M core hours per year". So no problem to grant an extra 100K BUs.
