If you install any library and application to your disk, our permits are not necessary.
If you expect that center install any library and application to a whole of system, please contact us from the following web form:
Inquiry / Request form
Please note that we may not permit or we may ask to install with yourself, depending on the kind of library and application.
Yes. You can do it by "Workflow" or "Request Connection Function".
Please see the following manual 7.Workflow an 1.2.22. Request Connection Function about how to use.
NQSII User's Guide
The different is the timing of running request. In the case of Workflow, all request become an object for assign immediately after submitting. In the case of Request Connection Function, next request become an object for assign after the previous request finished . Therefore, you should choose the workflow, if system is crowded,.
Please see the following manual page.
HPCI Manuals
In the following case, we will create same account for HPCI account and local account.

You can specify for MPI slave node almost all environment value by "#PBS -v option". But you can not specify some environment value on NQSII. Path is one of those. Please see the following manual, the end of 1.16.qsub(1).
NQSII User's Guide
You can specify PATH for slave node by the MPI runtime option.
Many PRNG (pseudo random number generator) make random number from the specified random seed. If you specified same random seed, it will generate same random number. If you want to get the independent random number, you have to change random seed each time.
Users can not check the congestion information of jobs.
If the large scale computing system was not crowded, your submitting job will become "ASG" on job scheduler. Therefore, please judge whether congestion or not by "STT" on sstat command.
And, if your submitted job keeps “QUE” by any error of your job or any problem of our system, we will report you about it.

No, you can't use. You can use GROMACS on only VCC.
We have not planed to install to SX-ACE. Thank you for your understanding.
In the work directory under /sqfs/work/(group name)/, you can create a directory for sharing and modify the group permissions to share files with members of the same group.
If you wish to share data with members of a different group, please transfer the files following the steps described here:
Please see the following page about our large-scale computer system.
You can't use the shared library(.so:Dynamic Shared Object) on SX. SX supports only static library.
Please use just a object code file or use archiving file(.a: Please change your shared library with "sxar" command).
sxar vr (library name).a (library name).so
Your job script file's file-format could be BOM(Byte Order Mark) format. Therefore, it is possible that the first line which you indicate to use specific shell is not interpreted. The job script should be non-BOM format.
Please check your file using the command below.
% file nqs.sh
You can change the file-format by a text-editor like vi. Please submit it again after changing the file-format.
We will show an example to edit BOM-format by using vi editor.
Open the file by vi, add the option '-b'.
% vi -b nqs.sh
<feff>#!/bin/csh
At the beginning of the first line, <feff>, this is BOM character. Delete these letters and save it.
Please see the following manula section "2.13.6" about the output infomation with MPIPROGINF.

* Note
If you run the hybrid MPI and OpenMP parallel program, these output information in "UserTime" and "SysTime" are CPU times per process. These times will be longer than "RealTime", because these times are additions each CPU times.
You might mistake the jobclass submitted.
Please confirm your job-script again. If your job-script is right, please contact us on the following page.
Inquiry form
In the case of C++/SX's Format List, it print a status letter,"S" or "A" or "I", etc, in the order of descending priorities. Therefore, some letter sometimes are overwrote. About the letter "S", if there are both vectorized part and not un-vectorized part, it isn't printed.
Please refer the following manual about a detail.

Basically, the job will run correctly. But that action differs depending on your submitted time or your specified elapse-time.
* Please note that your job might not run depending on situation of jobs the other users submitted, in the case of shared use.
Please see the following about the detail.
If Planned End Time of your submitted job exceed the beginning time of the maintenance, your job will not run till the maintenance finished. Planned End Time is calculated from submit-time and elapse-time which you specified elapstim_req at job-script.
For example, if you specified "elapstime_req=5:00:00" at your job-script and you submitted your job on 1:00 p.m., Planned End Time become 6:00 p.m.
* Without depending on the above, please note that your job might not run depending on situation of jobs the other users submitted, in the case of shared use.
Your job will run correctly without waiting the maintenance finished.
As mentioned above, your job will not run till the maintenance finished. The submitted job is received as QUE status, and will run after the maintenance except the maintenance held in the end of the fiscal year. All jobs will be deleted in the maintenance held in the end of the fiscal year. If you re-adjust the elapsed-time (elapstime_req) so as not to exceed the beginning time of maintenance and if re-submit, your job might be run soon. When you are in a hurry, please try it.
Maybe this situation will be in the case of dedicated use only. Your job will run correctly till the beginning maintenance. We're afraid that you must stop during the maintenance. If your job corresponds to this situation, we would contact you.
Your job will not run till the maintenance finished. The submitted job is received as QUE status, and will run after the maintenance.
Your job will run correctly.
Please confirm if you are not invoking other shell in ".cshrc" file.
The sftp-server process need to start from csh. If you are invoking other shell, it can not connect, then it will be timeout. Please delete the command line which invoke other shell in ".cshrc", and try again.
If it will not be solved, please contact us from the inquiry form below.

In your job script, you can set up environmental variable and options using setenv command. However, when you execute parallel job at multiple nodes, they are not reflected to all slave nodes.
In this case, please use the NQSII option '-v' in the job script as follows.
#PBS -v [environment variable or options]=[value]
