'''Q: How are jobs prioritized by the scheduler?'''

Generally, all users have equally priority. Though the debug, general, and long partitions do not have user or group-specific priority, each partition is ranked in priority from high to low. User fairshare is factored into scheduling. In some cases, some users may have higher-priority access; for example, research groups who have donated nodes may request dedicated partitions for priority access to (a subset of) those nodes or may request a dedicated node reserved exclusively for their research group.

'''Q: Do you have advice for long-running jobs?'''
# Make sure your code saves checkpoints frequently so that it can recover from being preempted.
# Post on the <code>#babel-babble</code> Slack channel first to alert other users.
# Consider running on the `long` partition. 
'''Q: What should I do if I notice another user's jobs/files are disrupting usage of the cluster for others?'''

Please message the <code>babble-babel</code> channel, tagging the user with the problematic job as well as <code>@help-babel</code>. Remember to '''communicate with respect'''; most errors are honest mistakes.

'''Q: I have other questions which aren't answered here.'''

Reach out on the <code>babble-babel</code> Slack channel, tagging in <code>@help-babel</code>. If you discover an answer which may be useful to others, please
