Why am I Getting E-mails About my Yen Usage Being High?

Since the Yens are a shared resource in the GSB community and yen1, yen2, yen3, yen4 and yen5 do not use a job scheduler (so that the Yens can be accessible to users of all skill levels), we have created a set of Community Guidelines for users of the Yens to abide by for fair usage of our servers.

As a way of enforcing these guidelines, we monitor the Yens and send e-mail notifications to users who exceed the best practice usage suggestions. Please comply with these guidelines so that the Yens can continue to be shared fairly with your peers.

Have a look here to find out how to check your resource usage on the Yens.
