Aitken Expansion Available for Production01 Mar, 2021
Aitken's new AMD "Rome" nodes are now available for production use. Early user testing in the alphatst queue has been disabled. Note that because the AMD nodes run the SUSE Linux Enterprise Server (SLES) Version 15 operating system, PBS jobs requesting these nodes must specify aoe=sles15 in their select statements. For example, you could request a two-node interactive job as follows: qsub -I -l select=2:ncpus=128:mpiprocs=128:model=rom_ait:aoe=sles15 For more information about using Aitken's AMD Rome nodes, see these articles in the HECC Knowledge Base: If you have any questions or run into any issues, please contact the Control Room at (800) 331-8737, (650) 604-4444, or support@nas.nasa.gov. |
