Subject: | HPC Cluster Upgrades, starting September 15 |
Greetings,
The below pertains to users of CHTCâs HPC Cluster, for which users submit jobs via the aci-service-1.chtc.wisc.edu login node. Users of only the HTC System are welcome to ignore the below. This email provides an overview of plans for major upgrades to the HPC Cluster, which will take place in several phases beginning September 15, as described below. The upgrades will include:
HPC Cluster Transition Timeline:
We have constructed the above timeline to give users four weeks in Sept/Oct to transition their software and other files for job submission to the new CentOS 7 configuration and Slurm queue. Guides are available with instructions on using our revamped software modules and updated version of Slurm when the cluster is available for login in September. Moving Data to the New Configuration The new configuration will offer separate locations for job data (/home) and software (/software) along with new quotas for each. Data in the existing HPC Cluster filesystem (/home via aci-service-1/2 nodes) will be unavailable in the new configuration and will be deleted after Oct 13. Importantly, users should use the upgrade as an opportunity to review and only transition data that will be necessary for future work (moving data from completed work to non-CHTC locations, as per CHTC data policies). New Documentation Documentation is now available on the CHTC website detailing the new HPC configuration, job submission, software use, and user policies which can be accessed at the following links:
Thank you, Your CHTC Team |
