Within this Framework, Member State users can use the Atos HPCF and ECGATE ECS services (HPCF resources are needed to use the HPCF / HPC service). In general, users should minimise the number of systems they use. Use of the HPC service is recommended for all computationally intensive (e.g. for running a numerical model) time-critical option 2 and 3 activity. The ECGATE (ECS) service should be used only for work that is not excessively computationally intensive such as post-processing output graphically before it is transferred to their Member State. Member State time-critical work may also need to use additional systems outside ECMWF after processing at ECMWF has been performed, for example to run other models using data produced by their work at ECMWF. It is not the purpose of this document to provide guidelines on how to run work which does not make use of ECMWF computing systems.

The User IDs authorised to run Option 2 work have access to all Atos HPCF complexes and you are advised to implement your suite so it can run on any of the clusters in case a specific cluster is unavailable for an extended period of time.
