[auton-users] Reminder for Reservations

[Michael J. Baysek]

Please remember, if you are running experiments on a deadline, that you 
can reserve a machine for your sole use.  This prevents resource 
contention from other users on the same machine, and also helps to 
produce more consistent timing results.


Reservation requests are best made in advance, because on-the-spot 
reservations are not always possible to make without killing user jobs, 
which I prefer not to do.


You can contact me for a reservation.  The decision of which machine to 
reserve, and whether it can be made available is complicated when many 
users are on the system.  I try to be as fair as possible.
