reservation limit?

[Arman Bahraini]

Is there a limit to how many reservations we can have at once? I don't seem to find the option under reservations if I already have one - even if it is just a few nodes and days in advanced. I've been afraid to cancel, then not be able to find another reservation. Any help would be much appreciated!

There is no automatically enforced limit on the number of reservations, no.
We just ask people to be reasonable and not try to hoard particular nodes types
(especially GPU nodes) for a long period of time. And we expect them not to try
to game the system to get large numbers of nodes or to hold on to nodes for
long periods of time.

Sorry, forgot to answer the second half of your query. Your reservations should
show up on your user dashboard under the Reservations tab. It is possible that
they have to be approved before they show up. But you do have a couple of
approved upcoming reservations. Do you not see them? Or perhaps I am
misunderstanding what you mean.

Hi Mike, thanks for getting back. Here is what I see currently. I'm looking for the option to create another reservation but no longer see it here:

I did not know there was an option there. I always go to the top-level
Experiments drop-down in the upper left and choose Reserve Nodes.

Also, rather than create two reservations for the same node type over the same
time period, combine them into a single reservation.

Hi Mike, thanks for getting back. Attached is what I see for my user. I'm not sure how to make another reservation from that tab - or maybe it is possible elsewhere on the site?

This is an old message that got stuck waiting for approval in the google group.
