   * **Shared Integration**: The compute node is added to the corresponding shared partition. Other users may utilize it when the owning group is not using it. For details, refer to the [[hpc/slurm#partitions|partitions]] section.
   * **Usage Limit**: Each research group may consume up to **60% of the theoretical usage credit associated with the compute node**. This policy ensures fair access to shared cluster resources. . See  the [[hpc:hpc_clusters#usage_limit|Usage limit]] policy for more details
-  * **Cost**: In addition to the base cost of the compute node, a **15% surcharge** is applied to cover operational expenses such as cables, racks, switches, and storage.
+  * **Cost**: In addition to the base cost of the compute node, a **15% surcharge** is applied to cover operational expenses such as cables, racks, switches, and storage (not yet valid).
   * **Ownership Period**: The compute node remains the property of the research group for **5 years**. After this period, the node may remain in production but will only be accessible via public and shared partitions.
   * **Warranty and Repairs**: Nodes come with a **3-year warranty**. If the node fails after this period, the research group is responsible for **100% of repair costs**. Repairing the node involves sending it to the vendor for diagnostics and a quote, with a maximum diagnostic fee of **420 CHF**, even if the node is irreparable.
