• You can login on the submit host hpcs03.op.umcutrecht.nl. This host is available from outside. If you access the cluster from outside, use hpcs01/02 as a stepping stone.

• Every now and then I notice some strange delays. This could be related to the fact that your homedirectory is served from a machine in the "old" cluster. Let me know if you also notice this.

HPC Test Cluster

• You can login on the submit host hpcs03.op.umcutrecht.nl

• Please try to compile, install and run your software and let us know what doesn't work.

• You can not submit jobs yet. (Actually you can, but please don't; I'm going to break this, repeatedly, over the next few days). For now, feel free to do a (small) test run on the submit host.

• The "modules" system works, and already provides some packages. Suggestions for more packages/versions welcome.

• Use the "module" command to list and use packages like R, Python and Java:

[mmarinus@hpcs03 ~]$ R --version
-bash: R: command not found
[mmarinus@hpcs03 ~]$ module avail

--------------------------------- /hpc/local/CentOS7/modulefiles/Lang ----------------------------------
   Java/1.8.0_60    R/3.2.2    python/2.7.10 (D)    python/3.4.3

  Where:
   (D):  Default Module

Use "module spider" to find all possible modules.
Use "module keyword key1 key2 ..." to search for all possible modules matching any of the "keys".

[mmarinus@hpcs03 ~]$ module load R
[mmarinus@hpcs03 ~]$ R --version

• Your homedirectory is served from a machine in the "old" cluster. This causes some strange delays from time to time. Should be better in the final situation.
