Training Sessions

The GACRC regularly hosts training sessions on a number of subjects relevant to the use of our computational and storage resources. Scheduled trainings will be announced through the GACRC mailing list.

NOTE: New users are required to attend an introductory training session and information about that will be sent once an account is requested.


Event Announcement

The GACRC is going to host thirteen training workshop in February of 2016. These workshops will provide an introduction to the GACRC Linux high performance computing (HPC) clusters and the Linux basics. We have three Linux practice sessions for GACRC users to obtain Linux hands-on working experiences. We have three topical sessions focusing on GACRC storage environment, software installation on zcluster, and the NCBI Blast software on zcluster.

The GACRC is going to host ten training workshop in March of 2016. These workshops will provide an introduction to the GACRC Linux high performance computing (HPC) clusters and the Linux basics. We have two Linux practice sessions for GACRC users to obtain Linux hands-on working experiences. We have two topical sessions focusing on the NCBI Blast software on zcluster and scientific Python basics.

Who Should Attend: New HPC cluster and zcluster users, or researchers who are interested in learning about the GACRC computing resources and Linux basics (Linux OS, Linux filesystem, shell, and common commands, scripting, etc.).


Topic Introduction

Title: Introduction to HPC Using the New Cluster at GACRC

Focus:

What's the new cluster at GACRC

New cluster's current computing resources

New cluster software environment

How to operate with the new cluster

How to work with the new cluster, e.g., how to run interactive jobs; how to run batch jobs; how to make job submission scripts and request computing resources; how to check job status, etc.


Title: Introduction to HPC Using zcluster at GACRC

Focus:

What's zcluster at GACRC

zcluster current computing resources

zcluster software environment

How to work with zcluster, e.g., how to run interactive jobs; how to run batch jobs and request computing resources; how to make job submission scripts; how to check job status, etc.


Title: Introduction to Linux Basics Part-I

Focus:

Linux OS and brief history

Linux command, filesystem, and shell

Linux common commands, etc.


Title: Introduction to Linux Basics Part-II (Basic Linux knowledge required)

Focus:

Linux shell

Common practices on Linux shell scripting

Common Linux utilities, e.g., sort, find, grep, awk, and sed etc.


Title: Linux Hands-on Practice Session (Basic Linux knowledge required)

Focus:

Hands-on practice on Linux common commands and shell scripting with common Linux utilities, e.g., sort, find, grep, awk, and sed etc.


Title: Introduction to GACRC Storage Environment

Focus:

Overview of Linux common commands related to file and folder operations

Overview of the storage enviornment of zcluster and the new cluster at GACRC

How to transfer data between local and GACRC storage

How to Register

If you would like to attend, please respond by email to: zhuofei@uga.edu or pakala@uga.edu. Also please tell us which session you want to attend.

We have 25 seats in the lab room, so we have a 25 user/workshop limit. Please respond at your earliest convenience to register to guarantee your seat. You are welcome and encouraged to attend those workshops to learn about how to work with the HPC clusters at the GACRC.


The GACRC is going to host other training workshops and seminars covering various HPC topics, including HPC introduction, Linux working environment and utilities (Linux Part III), Bioinfomatics applications, scientific programming, etc., in the near future. We will announce those events when they are scheduled.

The GACRC Web Training page can be found at http://gacrc.uga.edu/help/training/ and the GACRC Wiki Training page can be found at https://wiki.gacrc.uga.edu/wiki/Training, from which you can find detailed information about upcoming and past training sessions from GACRC and download training materials.
