It is intended to train people on using high performance computing incorporating large memory problems. It is not intended for massively parallel computing. (See Socrates for those problems.)

Accounts are created for classes and are removed after the classes have finished. Special accounts (not associated with a class) are available by request to hpc_consult@usask.ca, subject to approval based on appropriateness of use and request from faculty supervisor.
Moneta is on the local network at the UofS, and cannot be reached directly from off-campus (for security reasons). Users can connect from off-campus by first connecting to homepage.usask.ca, then from there to Moneta via ssh.
ssh abc123@moneta.usask.ca
where abc123 is your NSID, and the password on Moneta is your UofS NSID password.
