Key partitions you may have access to:

- **general** — The default community partition. Maximum wall time of 2 days. Use this if you are not a member of a specific condo group.
- **debug** — Short jobs only (4-hour limit). Useful for testing scripts before submitting long runs.
- **debug** — Short jobs only (1-hour limit). Useful for testing scripts before submitting long runs.
- **condo** — Purchased nodes available to specific research groups. If you are a member of a condo group, you likely already know your partition name. Check with your PI if you are unsure.
- **scavenger** - Whenever a purchased/reserved node is not in use, this partition grabs them and allows them to be used by the public, but be warned you will be kicked off if the owner begins a job on it.
