As you plan your spending on the PACE Phoenix and Firebird clusters for the end of Georgia Tech’s FY24 on June 30, 2024, we would like to alert you to several deadlines:
- Due to the time it takes to process purchase requests, we would like to get all prepaid compute and lump-sum storage purchases exceeding $5,000 by April 19, 2024. Please contact us if you know there will be any purchases exceeding that amount so that we may help you with planning.
- Purchases under $5,000 can continue without restrictions.
- All spending after May 31, 2024, will be held for processing in July, in FY25. This includes postpaid compute jobs run in June, monthly storage payments for June, and new prepaid purchases requested after May 31, 2024.
- State funds (DE worktags) expiring on June 30, 2024, may not be used for June spending.
- Grant funds (GR worktags) expiring June 30, 2024, may be used for postpaid compute and monthly storage in June.
- Existing refresh (CODA20), FY20, and prepaid compute are not impacted, nor is existing prepaid storage.
- For worktags that are not expiring, your normal monthly limits on postpaid compute (if selected) will apply in May and June. Monthly storage will continue to be billed as normal.
