Zoidberg is part of the HPC Cluster in name and location only. It's treated as mostly separate, and can be used outside of Slurm. Zoidberg is by far the most powerful HPC node as well. However, it's currently being used to power Ion instead of any cluster workloads.

Zoidberg currently has a workstation IP and is plugged into the workstation VLAN by means of a long ethernet cable because the networking to the HPC cluster is broken ("it's fine if they can't DHCP" no it friggin isn't "well if they don't have static IPs then they're mis-managed" seriously?? also static IPs didn't seem to work anyway).
