Training course: "Introduction to HPC2N" in Umeå, 9 September 2020

HPC2N is offering an introduction course to our systems, "Introduction to HPC2N" in Umeå, 9 September 2020.

NOTE: The course is currently being planned as both on-site and online, depending on how the COVID-19 situation develops over the summer. Right now it leans towards mainly online/remotely. Regardless, there will be the option to participate remotely, through Zoom.

We begin with a short (optional) introduction to Linux, then continue with a walk-through of Kebnekaise, including the GPUs and the KNLs.

In the afternoon we look at the module system and how to load the software you need, as well as how to submit jobs through the batch system.

There will be a hands-on part of the course, where the participants get the opportunity to load modules, compile programs, and submit jobs to the Kebnekaise system.

The course if free to anyone in Swedish academia. Please bring a laptop if you wish to participate in the hands-on.
