+====== DRAFT | Peanut Job Submission Cluster ======
 We are currently **alpha** testing and gauging user interest in a cluster of machines that allows for the submission of long running compute jobs. Think of these machines as a dumping ground for discrete computing tasks that might have been rude or disruptive to execute on the main (shared) shell servers (i.e., linux1, linux2, linux3).

 ==== Storage ====
-Shared scratch storage is being planned, but not yet available. Techstaff hopes to have this done in time for the winter quarter.
+There is slow scratch space mounted to ''%%/scratch%%''. It is a ZFS pool consisting of 10x 2TB 7200RPM SAS drives connected via a LSI 9211-8i and is made up of 5 mirrored VDEVs, which is similar to a RAID10. The servers uplink is 1G ethernet.
+  * Files older than 90 days will be deleted automatically.
+  * Scratch space is shared by all users.
 ==== Utilization Dashboard ====
 Sometimes it is useful to see how much of the cluster is utilized. You can do that via the following URL: http://peanut.cs.uchicago.edu
 ==== Partitions / Queues ====
-As of December, 2015 we have 3 partitions in our cluster.
+As of December, 2015 we have will have at least 2 partitions in our cluster; 'debug' and 'general'. An other partition is not guarenteed and will server a specific purpose.
