[LA-SIGMA] HPC Training: Introduction to Linux

[Feng Chen]

Dear All,

The schedule for the Fall 2021 HPC Training is available at http://www.hpc.lsu.edu/training/tutorials.php.

Our first HPC training will be held on Wednesday, September 1 at 9:00 AM. Due to concern about the COVID-19 pandemic, all training sessions are Zoom online events from 9:00AM to 11:00AM. The sessions will be recorded for later review.

Note that all HPC trainings will start at 9:00AM.

Wednesday, September 1, 2021: Introduction to Linux
The aim of this training is to get users familiar with using Linux systems e.g. the HPC resources. This training will cover basic Linux commands and editors (emacs and vi) on Linux systems. Anyone who is interested in learning about using a Linux based computer is encouraged to attend. If you are not familiar with using a Linux system particularly creating/writing files then this course is a prerequisite for the forthcoming training on HPC User Environment 1 & 2.
This training is *mandatory* for HPC users who are not familiar with using a Linux/Unix system.
Prerequisite: Access to a Linux/Unix based computer i.e. Linux (VirtualBox images), Mac OSX and Windows with Cygwin or Bash installed.

Next two HPC Trainings:

Wednesday, September   8, 2021: HPC User Environment 1, Job Management on HPC Clusters
Wednesday, September 15, 2021: HPC User Environment 2, Job Management on HPC Clusters
This training provides an overview of the HPC/LONI general account and allocation policies, hardware and software environments, queuing system, compiling programs, writing submit scripts, running and monitoring jobs on HPC systems.
This training is a *mandatory* two-day training event for all HPC/LONI new users held on September 8 and September 15.
Prerequisite: Familiarity with Linux/Unix commands and editors.
