CoE HPC Newsletter, Nov 21 Edition: DGX queue change
by Yelle, Robert Brian 21 Nov '22

21 Nov '22

Cluster users, Please take note of DGX queue change and upcoming cluster maintenance below. DGX queue change The load on the DGX systems has sustained a load of 90-100% utilization for the last several weeks, making it difficult for many to obtain resources from the dgx and dgx2 partitions. To help reduce the load and make GPU resources more readily available on the DGX nodes without further reducing the overall GPU limits, the max GPU per job limit for the dgx partition has been reduced from 4 to 3. So if you need 4 GPUs or more per job, please use the dgx2 partition instead. Jobs requesting 4 GPUs from the dgx partition will result in the “QOSMaxGRESPerJob” error message. Winter maintenance This is an early heads-up that the cluster will undergo its regular quarterly maintenance after finals week, December 12-16. To see the latest updates on the cluster, check out the link below: https://it.engineering.oregonstate.edu/hpc/hpc-cluster-status-and-news Cheers, Rob Yelle HPC Manager

CoE HPC News, November 10 2022 Edition: Cooling failure
by Yelle, Robert Brian 10 Nov '22

10 Nov '22

HPCC users, Early this morning there was a cooling failure in the KEC datacenter which allowed temperatures to climb to unsafe levels, resulting in the automatic shutdown of all DGX-2 nodes and thus the termination of all jobs running on these nodes. Cooling has been restored to safe temperatures, and all of the DGX-2 nodes are back online. I know many of you have deadlines coming up, so may want to check the status of your jobs and resubmit as needed. Rob Yelle HPC Manager
