Cheyenne is being retired on December 31, 2023. As of this week, only two months remain to switch all projects from Cheyenne to Derecho. Make it a priority to transition your computing projects to Derecho as soon as possible, to avoid needing to repeat important runs. CISL cannot provide anyone with special priority to complete last-minute work, so consider it imperative to switch at the next ...
Researchers can now access CONUS404, a remarkable new dataset on U.S. weather patterns, through the Casper analysis cluster. The nearly one-petabyte dataset is the result of a collaboration between the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) and the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) and was recently published in NCAR’s Research Data Archive (RDA). The CONUS404 dataset covers the contiguo...
HPC systems maintenance activities are proceeding well. GLADE file space transitions and storage maintenance activities have been completed. Maintenance is ongoing for Derecho, Casper, and JupyterHub, with all systems planned for return to service by the end of the week. Cheyenne has been returned to service. Jobs that were held in the queues at the beginning of the maintenance period are...
Interested in joining the next generation of climate researchers? The NOAA Climate and Global Change Postdoctoral Fellowship Program is currently seeking applications for 2024. The application deadline is January 12, 2024. This prestigious program focuses on research that furthers our understanding of physical earth system processes, climate impacts, and climate adaptation science. Fellows wil...
All CISL HPC systems - Casper, Cheyenne, Derecho, JupyterHub, and data access nodes, will be down for scheduled maintenance the week of October 23–27 to deploy a new operating system on Casper, and to perform file system migrations in preparation for Cheyenne retirement at the end of this year. CISL engineers will relocate a number of file system datasets during this outage—including /glade/wo...
In case you missed it, the last day of the year is also the last day for Cheyenne. The system is being retired on December 31, 2023. To avoid a scenario in which any hard-won runs have to be repeated, you should transition any supercomputing projects to Derecho as soon as possible. CISL is unable to provide any researcher with special priority to complete last-minute work, so you should move w...
