| The ''%%portal%%'' cluster is a general purpose cluster of servers whose logins are load balanced among the servers. Upon an 'ssh' to ''%%portal.cs.virginia.edu%%'', your login will be placed on the least loaded of the cluster's servers (portal[01,02, etc.]). Each system is running CentOS Linux and has plenty of memory, CPU cores, and scratch (/localtmp) space. | The ''%%portal%%'' cluster is a general purpose cluster of servers whose logins are load balanced among the servers.

| You can use portal to perform many interactive tasks, like editing files, compiling code, testing code, etc. If you intend to run long, compute intensive programs, you should use other [[compute_resources|Computing Resources]] which are available for general login or through the job scheduler (see [[compute_slurm|Scheduling a Job using the SLURM job scheduler]]). | You can use portal to perform many interactive tasks, like editing files, compiling code, testing code, etc. If you intend to run long, compute intensive programs, you should use other [[compute_resources|Computing Resources]] which are available for general login or through the job scheduler (see [[compute_slurm|Scheduling a Job using the SLURM job scheduler]]). | ||
