Dear HPC users,
the maintenance is now over!
What’s new in Baobab:
- Slurm 20.02.6
- easier to launch remote graphical software through Slurm using : “salloc --x11”.
We’ll create a topic on hpc-community about that and update the doc accordingly - new GPGPU nodes installed in the datacentre: gpu015 and gpu016: 128 AMD CPU and 8 x RTX2080Ti on each servers.
- BeeGFS 7.1.5
- CentOS 7.9.2009
- All the compute nodes reinstalled as usual
- power cabling re organisation to get enough power for the new compute nodes
- various bug fix and scriptings
During this maintenance, we have introduced a simplified naming scheme for Slurm partitions.
This is important as you will need to update your sbatch scripts before February 2021 (next Baobab maintenance).
For more information, please visit : Simplified partition naming scheme
For this maintenance we were helped from Rémy (astro dept.) thanks for the help.
Best regards
HPC team
Yann, Luca, Massimo
