Active QOS'

The following table lists currently configured QOS' available to users on CIRCE. Any QOS which is considered "Default" does not need to be explicitly specified in submission syntax. All others must be explicitly specified.

Research Computing administrators have assigned QOS' due to:

• contribution status
• research need(s)
• time constraints
• access controls

Please email rc-help@usf.edu if you have any questions and/or comments pertaining to currently configured QOS', or if you require access to a QOS listed below.
