[NLPL Task Force (A)] allocation request for additional billing units on Puhti

[Stephan Oepen]

hi martin,

i finally worked out why the UiO NLPL project at CSC keeps using
billing units, even though there has only been one moderately active
UiO user recently.  we are of course billed for the storage, and i
presume this is why yves and i (file owners on a good part of our
data) show up in the usage statistics for this project with
near-constant charges each month.

could i suggest you top up the UiO project with, say, another 200,000
units for the rest of the year?  the one 'genuine' user is farhad, and
every time the project nominally runs out of units, his jobs suffer.

if we discount the large projects by helsinki and turku (which
formally are not called NLPL projects, even though we tend to include
them in our total tally of computing by NLPL partners), i am pretty
sure we remain well below the pledged three million hours (which
should translate into six million units, i think) also in 2019.

best wishes, oe
