From the OPTIONS: section of the idev help output:

-m     minutes            sets time in minutes (default: 30)

-r     reservation_name   requests use of a specific reservation

-A     account_name       sets account name (default: -A none)

So you will request an idev node using the reservation named GVAday#, where # is the day of the class and asked that it be charged to the account named UT-2015-05-18.


Note
titleWorking outside of class time

The reservation is set to run specifically 9-12 each morning while the class is in session. If you are attempting to work on an idev node outside of those times, you still can and should use idev, just exclude the -r option.


The question becomes 'how long do we need to request the idev node for'? As the reservation only runs between 9am and 12pm each day this week, you need to request the enough minutes to set it to end a few minutes before 12:00 so the session will start. If you set it to end after 12:00 it won't actually launch.
