Commercial projects have some minor differences. Only usage is charged, not allocation, so downtime does not affect charging. Unused time in each quarter is also not charged for. An additional quarterly allocation may be granted if it is available.
See See Project Accounting for for how to see usage and allocation information of your projects.
Job Priorities
Pawsey uses the fairshare algorithm in its job prioritisation. This takes into account the quarterly usage relative to the quarterly allocation. A project that is close to using up its allocation is a lower priority than one that is just starting. Fairshare aims to have all projects be at 100% usage of their allocation for the quarter. At the end of each quarter, usage and therefore fairshare are reset.

All projects that use the Pawsey compute resources are allocated Service Units (SU) through one of the several merit allocation-based schemes. How service units are defined and consumed will depend on which system you are using. In general, 1 SU is equal to 1 core hour.
