Over the last year CCR staff has been configuring and testing a replacement to our batch job and scheduling software, PBS/Torque. We are pleased to be in final preparations for the transition to the SLURM workload manager. SLURM has been in use for some time at DoE HPC facilities, and is becoming increasingly popular at academic sites. We've had several large faculty groups testing SLURM at CCR over the last few months and we're confident you will be happy with the switch.
Early in June, half of the u2 cluster was brought into the new SLURM configuration. On Tuesday, July 9th the remaining half of the U2 cluster was migrated into SLURM.
CCR Staff will be holding informational sessions for all CCR users so you can get an idea of what SLURM is and how the new system is setup. The presentation will cover topics such as:
The presentation will be followed up by a question and answer period. The sessions are free and open to all CCR users. No pre-registration is required. If you have any questions, please contact CCR Help.
