On May 2, join a webinar hosted by National Science Data Fabric (NSDF) Distinguished Speaker Dr. Thomas Hauser, the director of the Computational and Information Systems Laboratory (CISL). Dr. Hauser will deliver a talk entitled “Advancing Earth System Science through Research Computing and Data Services at NSF National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR).” The talk will discuss CISL’s co...
None planned for Casper, Derecho, GLADE, Quasar, Stratus, or JupyterHub.
All CISL HPC systems will be down for scheduled maintenance May 7-8 deploy an updated version of the PBS batch scheduling system across all resources. During this time, all Derecho and Casper compute nodes will be unavailable. Login nodes will be unavailable at the beginning of the outage window in order to allow for file system maintenance. Scheduler reservations will be put in place to ensur...
The eScience Institute at the University of Washington is inviting applications for their annual hackweek program Aug 19-23rd in Seattle, WA. This year will feature projects using data from the NASA ICESat-2 and SnowEx missions and include training on Machine Learning in the Geosciences (NSF GeoSMART). Hackweeks are designed to support academic students and researchers at the graduate level a...
CISL recommends running small jobs that use only CPUs on the Casper cluster’s high-throughput computing (HTC) nodes. Casper has 64 HTC nodes specifically for running small batch jobs. It also has: • Shared resources rather than dedicated Derecho nodes. • More available memory, plus NVMe swap for overflow and local storage. • Direct PBS cross-submission from Derecho. See Starting Casper Jobs f...
