| ====== Welcome! ====== | |
| ~~NOCACHE~~ | |
| |
| This site provides details of IT-supported hardware and software environments, instructions and tutorials on their use, and their organizational and administrative structure for the [[itrc>community-cluster|IT Research Computing community clusters]]. These community clusters are supported by the [[itrc>contact|IT HPC Team]]. | |
| |
| To view all of the specific system information for active clusters including individual nodes and system status, see [[http://www.hpc.udel.edu|UD IT HPC]]. | |
| |
| ===== Clusters ===== | |
| |
| The table below lists community clusters currently in service and supported by the IT HPC Team. The cluster documentation pages will have system information, a getting started guide, and specific documentation for that cluster. Visit the cluster specification pages for specific cluster configuration information. | |

| ===== Documentation ===== | |
| |
| This wiki includes several types of instructional documentation | |
| |
| * Instructions specific to each cluster such as system overview and specifications, getting started, transferring files, installing software, and running jobs can be found on the <html><span style="color:#ffffff;background-color:#2fa4e7;padding:3px 7px !important;border-radius:4px;">sidebar</span></html> for each cluster. | |
| |
| * The [[software:software|software-specific]] area contains local documentation that augments vendor-supplied documentation for application software. | |
| |
| * The [[technical:technical|technical documentation]] area contains information authored by IT-NSS and IT-CSS as the HPC systems are built. This information is published to aid IT staff with future cluster deployments and to aid others who are building HPC systems. | |
| |
| ==== Documentation conventions ==== | |
| |
| In this wiki, the notational convention <<name>> indicates a placeholder whose value you supply. (You do not type the "<<" or ">>" symbols.) | |
| |
| === Examples in the wiki using placeholder values === | |
| |
| ^ Placeholder ^ Value ^ | |
| | <<hostname>> | mills.hpc.udel.edu | | |
| | <<username>> | traine | | |
| | <<investing_entity>> | it_css | | |
| |
| Also Unix commands or commands specific to our cluster environment will be bolded, and defined terms specific to our cluster will be italicized. | |
| |
| === Examples in the wiki using placeholder values, bolded commands and italicized terms === | |
| |
| To use the compute nodes for a particular //investing-entity// cluster group (workgroup), you need to use the **workgroup** command. | |
| |
| ''workgroup -g'' <<investing-entity>> | |
| |
| For example, to start a new shell for the workgroup (//investing-entity//) ''it_css'', type | |
| <code bash> | |
| workgroup –g it_css | |
| </code> | |

| ===== Help ===== | |
| |
| ==== System or account problems, or can't find an answer on this wiki ==== | |
| |
| If you are experiencing a problem on one of the UD HPC clusters, or you just can't find the help you need on this wiki, then submit a [[https://services.udel.edu/TDClient/32/Portal/Requests/TicketRequests/NewForm?ID=D5ZRIgFlfLw_|Research Computing High Performance Computing (HPC) Clusters Help Request]] and complete the form including which cluster and your problem details in the description field. | |
| ==== Ask or tell the HPC community ==== | |
| |
| [[https://groups.google.com/a/udel.edu/d/forum/hpc-ask?hl=en-US|hpc-ask]] is a Google group established to stimulate interactions within UD’s broader HPC community and is based on members helping members. This is a great venue to post a question about HPC, start a discussion or share an upcoming event with the community. Anyone may request membership. Messages are sent as a daily summary to all group members. This list is archived, public, and searchable by anyone. | |
| |
| ==== Publication and Grant Writing Resources ===== | |
| |
| [[http://sites.udel.edu/research-computing/community-cluster-templates/|HPC templates]] are available to use for a proposal or publication to acknowledge use of or describe UD’s Information Technologies HPC resources. | |
