CADE Lab User Policy
The following applies to all users of the CADE lab facilities. We reserve the right to freeze the account of anyone found to be in violation of these policies.
1. No food or drink may be consumed in the lab. Closed water bottles are permitted but must not be kept on the desks.
2. Please do not take paper out of the printers. If you need scrap paper you are more than welcome to take it from the recycle bins.
3. DO NOT turn of any of the machines. If for some reason you thinkthe machine needs to be rebooted come and find a memeber of staff. Rebooting or turning off a machine will just leave it unusable for everyone else.
4. Any machine that has been left locked for more than 1 hour will be checked for running processes. If none are found then the user will be logged out and a warning will be sent. If you have a process running but have to leave for class and intend on returning then please leave a note on the computer and let one of the operators know.
If after the second warning we find any user keeping machines tied up for no reason we reserve the right to freeze that users account.
5. Please log out of machines properly. When you click logout from the menu a dialog box will appear. You must click “Log Out” and OK to be fully logged out.
6. If you use VNC to remotely log in please remember to kill the vncserver on the lab machine when you are finished.
7. The CADE staff are not TA's and we are not allowed to help you with your homework. If you need to find your TA please consult your class website.
8. If you need to run a resource heavy process for a long time then we ask that you use one of our computational servers (compute1 or compute4). These can be accessed by remotely logging in the same way you would into a lab machine.
Please remember to respect other users and help to keep the lab running smoothly.
