===Linux Training for Linux-inexperienced Cluster New Users===
The Sapelo2 High Performance Computing (HPC) cluster runs a headless Linux distribution as the operating system on each of its constituent nodes. The term headless refers to the fact that these nodes do not have a desktop graphical user interface (GUI) installed by default. Graphical desktop environments consume resources that analyses could otherwise use, so users employ a command-line interface (CLI) instead. To interact with these resources, users connect to a remote terminal via SSH and execute commands.
 
The Linux Training workshop provides hands-on practice of the fundamental Linux commands necessary to interact with HPC resources.
 
'''Prerequisite:'''
 
Please watch the introductory videos on Linux, basic Linux terms, and Linux Paths and Directories (total ~17 minutes) '''before attending the training workshop'''.

*[https://kaltura.uga.edu/media/t/1_wdyxhgdg/176125031 Linux Paths and Directories]
 
'''Training Goals:'''
 
1. Understand fundamental concepts of Linux working environment (filesystem hierarchy, path, PATH, etc.) 
 
2. Know how to use Linux common commands (ls, cd, pwd, cat, more, nano, mkdir, rm, cp, mv, etc.)

Using Sapelo2 Cluster at the GACRC July 25th, Friday, 2:00 PM - 4:00 PM


Linux Training for Linux-inexperienced Cluster New Users

The Sapelo2 High Performance Computing (HPC) cluster runs a headless Linux distribution as the operating system on each of its constituent nodes. The term headless refers to the fact that these nodes do not have a desktop graphical user interface (GUI) installed by default. Graphical desktop environments consume resources that analyses could otherwise use, so users employ a command-line interface (CLI) instead. To interact with these resources, users connect to a remote terminal via SSH and execute commands.

The Linux Training workshop provides hands-on practice of the fundamental Linux commands necessary to interact with HPC resources.

Prerequisite:

Please watch the introductory videos on Linux, basic Linux terms, and Linux Paths and Directories (total ~17 minutes) before attending the training workshop.

Training Goals:

1. Understand fundamental concepts of Linux working environment (filesystem hierarchy, path, PATH, etc.)

2. Know how to use Linux common commands (ls, cd, pwd, cat, more, nano, mkdir, rm, cp, mv, etc.)

3. Understand what is Linux bash shell and know how to make a simple Linux script and run it in Linux environment

Scheduled Sessions:

Title Date/Time
Use Linux on Cluster June 18th, Wednesday, 1:00 PM - 3:00 PM
Use Linux on Cluster July 8th, Tuesday, 1:00 PM - 3:00 PM
Use Linux on Cluster July 14th, Monday, 1:00 PM - 3:00 PM
Use Linux on Cluster July 23rd, Wednesday, 1:00 PM - 3:00 PM


Using Sapelo2 Cluster at the GACRC, Part II

This workshop will cover high-performance computing on Sapelo2, including job scheduling, resource requests (CPU, memory, GPU), and techniques for optimizing job performance.

Prerequisites:

  • Linux basics. A Linux-inexperienced user must complete a prerequisite Linux training for Linux-inexperienced cluster new users.
  • Sapelo2 cluster new user training. Fundamental HPC and Sapelo2 knowledge is required for this advanced Sapelo2 workshop.

Training Goals:

1. Learn about high-performance computing framework

2. Why is my job pending? How can I get my job to start sooner? How to find available computing resources on Sapelo2?

3. How to request computing resources such as nodes, CPU cores, memory, GPU device, etc. to run serial, threaded, MPI, and GPU jobs on Sapelo2?

4. How can I make my job run more efficiently (through the correct use of software and hardware)?

5. A quick intro to MPI library and how to compile/run MPI jobs on Sapelo2

Scheduled Sessions:

Title Date/Time
Using Sapelo2 Cluster at the GACRC, Part II June 27th, Friday, 2:00 PM - 4:00 PM


Installing Software Packages in Virtual Environments on Sapelo2

This workshop will cover the basics of virtual environments as well as provide practical guidance and best practices for using virtual environments on the Sapelo2 cluster. Participants will learn the basics of creating and configuring virtual environments, how to install software packages in both a Conda virtual environment and a Python virtual environment, and manage dependencies in their environments.

Prerequisite:

Must already have strong understanding of the Linux environment and Sapelo2.

Training Goals:

1. Learn how to create a virtual environment on Sapelo2

2. Be able to install software packages into both Conda and Python virtual environments

3. Understand how to manage dependencies of their virtual environments

Scheduled Sessions:

Job Parallelization with GNU Parallel and Slurm Arrays

Learn how to run multiple commands in parallel using GNU Parallel and Slurm Arrays. These tools greatly reduce the runtime of certain types of jobs by running multiple instances of the same command in parallel. The workshop focuses on problems that involve executing the same command on multiple different inputs. This workshop is intended for users comfortable writing job submission scripts and using a command line. Concurrent and parallel programming techniques are not covered in this workshop.

Prerequisite:

Must already have strong understanding of the Linux environment and Sapelo2.

Training Goals:

1. Understand which jobs benefit from GNU Parallel and Slurm Arrays

2. Use GNU Parallel and Slurm Arrays to parallelize jobs

3. Understand the differences and similarities between GNU Parallel and Slurm Arrays

Scheduled Sessions:

Title Date/Time
Job Parallelization with GNU Parallel and Slurm Arrays June 26th, Thursday, 1:00 PM - 2:30 PM


How to Register
