In addition to providing the latest version of the software, it also provides updated Eas圜onfigs which should make installations of recent package versions … um … easier. The EasyBuild installations have been upgraded to the most recent version.

#Vast plash drivers#

The Nvidia drivers on the a100_normal_q nodes have been upgraded from 470 to 520.ĬUDA 11.8 has been installed as the default system CUDA on all Tinkercliffs GPU nodes.

Going forward, we will standardize on the Apptainer naming convention and suggest you update any scripts to do the same. Some backward compatability is provided by Apptainer’s use of singularity command wrappers and a similar module wrapper ARC has provided so that module load containers/singularity will continue to work. In additional, this provided an opportunity to get all the containerizations installations across ARC systems onto a common version. The community in general has moved from the Singularity name to Apptainer and the new modules reflect this.

Singularity modules updated to recent Apptainer release Įxisting Singularity installations on ARC systems had were subject to a security advisory and needed to be updated. It will remain temporarily accessible on Tinkercliffs so that people may retrieve any needed data from it, but will be removed no later than the August 2023 maintenance Open On Demand ĪRC production instance of Open OnDemand is now running a new version of OnDemand and is running on newer, more robust server.

It has been consistently full since the fall of 2022 despite repeated requests from ARC personnel to individual users to remove data. Pursuant to the release of /globalscratch, the /fastscratch file system is now deprecated. We expect that the age-based limits will prevent it from filling up, but will be monitoring usage regularly to make sure it remains available to all users. However, it has finite capacity and is a shared resource. The /globalscratch storage resource has been initially launched with no size-based quota enforcement. We suggest that you make every effort to move your files out within 1-2 days of the completion of a job in order to avoid data loss. 90-day age limit enforced įiles which are older than 90 days (based on modification date) will be automatically purged on a continual basis with no prior notification. Data will remain in place when a job ends, but files that were created or modified during a job need to be retained, then they must quickly be transferred to a persistent storage location such as /home or /projects. The “scratch” terminology indicates that it is for temporary staging of files for actively running jobs.

Notes and Guidance for May 2023 cluster changes New SCRATCH filesystem Ī new VAST flash-based storage system has been brought online to serve as a scratch storage location and is mounted at /globalscratch.
