Guidelines
There are more than 300 computers available for student use in the OIT computing clusters on campus. The computing clusters provide high-end computers and access to general, as well as course-specific software. Clusters are also areas for academic collaboration.
The computing cluster guidelines are:
- A computing cluster follows the same open hours as the building in which it is located. For example, a cluster in a library is accessible during the libraries normal hours of operation.
- Most clusters are open 24 hours a day and often require a proximity card or a door lock combination. Combinations can be obtained from the corresponding host department or Residential College office.
- All clusters are open to all students, however, Residential College members have priority for use of the cluster in located in their College.
- Your computer must be registered in the campus Host Database to use a mobile networking drop.
- Reservations are taken at some of the computing clusters. Refer to the Clusters List for the clusters that accept reservations and the hosting department taking the reservation. An "n/a" means that reservations are not available for the listed cluster.
