Migration Timeline of HPC Hardware to chip
The DoIT Research Computing Team has deployed a new High-Performance Computing Cluster, chip. This new cluster is better equipped to handle the variety of research workflows than ada or taki. The chip cluster has an updated software stack, redundant and more reliable head nodes, and a high-speed connection to the newly deployed ceph storage cluster which provides more than 2PB of storage within Retriever Research Storage (RRStor).
With the chip cluster now available to contributing faculty, the DoIT Research Computing Team will begin to migrate the older CPU and GPU hardware from ada and taki to chip. The timeline for this migration is separated into three phases.
Phase 1: February 20 - March 2
All users and groups will be duplicated on chip as they exist on ada & taki
Deploy of new RT form for account & group creation on chip
All account, group, and software requests will be redirected to chip
Phase 2: March 3 - April 2
All ada & taki users will be able to login to ada, taki, & chip
Half of the machines from ada & taki will be migrated to chip
Phase 3: April 3 - April 10
We know this transition may be disruptive to current research groups using the cluster and apologize in advance for any inconvenience this may cause.
Please note that all research storage available on ada or taki is available on chip.

HPCF Publications Reporting
Please send recent publications and theses
Dear Colleagues and all users of HPCF,
Documenting research outcomes in the form of publications is the most important documentation of the usefulness of HPCF! So, it is a good time again close to the semester end to ask you e-mail me citations of papers. Please, send to
gobbert@umbc.edu
Please include theses of any kind (undergrad, MS, PhD, etc.), since those are a really nice component of the usefulness of HPCF for students!
No PDF of any publications is needed, but just the citation. If you have a PDF, we are happy to post it. If you have the URL of the publication (e.g., journal or arXiv, etc.), we can post that. Or both.

HPCF User Meeting Friday 01/26/2024
10:00 am in Math/Psyc 102/103
Dear Colleagues and all users of HPCF,
TL;DR:
(i) user meeting Fri 01/26/2024 10:00 in MP102/103,
(ii) send publication info!
(iii) hopefully MRI proposal this year
Publications:
To start with item (ii), since it is really the most important, please always remember to send me the citation of publications that we can list on the HPCF webpage! This is invaluable to demonstrate our community's weight for our university administration -- all new by now really! -- and will be used in future NSF (or other) proposals. Include student theses (undergrad, MS, PhD), as well, please.
User meeting:
Item (i) calls for a general user meeting next Friday 01/26/2024 at 10:00, which is the Friday before semester start. I will be in the physical location Math/Pysc 102 or 103, depending on crowd size, but the meeting will also be in Webex and recorded. The Webex link will be in the reminder posting on Friday morning. If you plan to attend, maybe reply to this mail -- with indication of in-person or online -- so I can plan (and make doubly sure you receive the web link). In particular if you have to RSVP negative, feel free to include notes (see below).
HPCF proposals / purchases:
I really thank a user who reminded me by asking about purchase (and MRI) that I should inform you all better. Some of you may recall me saying -- and certainly sharing with the governance committee -- that we should participate in the November 2023 NSF MRI competition. Since the NSF changed the time frame, this was the second MRI competition in the year after one in January 2023. Future ones will be in November of each year. In fact, I had been suggesting throughout the preceding year that we should hold back on any purchase, until after that MRI was submitted (so we do not look rich at the time of submission). Given I am aware of 10+ faculty who were at some point ready to contribute funding, my suggestion was not crazy, but did lose out on the energy of the willingness to contribute at the time.
Last year 2023, we had a task force on computing (under the RCA and led by the VPs for Research and for IT, chaired by our own Zhibo Zhang and Karuna Joshi). When this taskforce came together, it was frankly a year after the intent had been born, yet it was clever timing in that we were supposed to have a new provost, so I understand the thinking of the VPs. It would yet have fit with the timing that I angled for, but the taskforce worked out quite differently than expected by me at least. In short, the taskforce also considered many other aspects of computing (cloud) and necessary issues (storage, controlled access needed by certain types of research, etc.), so HPCF was not the focus. Inasmuch as HPCF was a focus at times, there was an endorsement of the concept and a request for resources, but no concrete plan.
It then came also to pass that it never came to a campus competition for the 3 MRI slots for November 2023, since all proposals that had gone forwarded the previous January were allowed to compete a second time. This is the reason why you did not hear from me late last year. I assure you, if I had led an MRI proposal, you would have heard from me through this channel. So, in this spirit, consider this the first communication for my suggestion to compete for the November 2024 NSF MRI. But that said, this meeting can and should really provide a broader forum for ideas and other channels how to continue funding HPCF for all of us users.
Closing
In summary, please come to the user meeting, if you can; please RSVP if able to plan ahead; feel free to include comments in your RSVP that I will collect; I will introduce the HPCF RAs at the meeting; I can share more details on last year; and we should discuss with those at the meeting what plan we all see going forward.
chair, HPCF Governance Committee

Scheduled Downtime of taki Completed*
*Mostly!
To all taki users,
The taki downtime scheduled for today from 0800-1700 has completed a little behind schedule. We have updated the workload manager, SLURM, from major version 19 to major version 20. In the near future, we will be scheduling additional downtimes to iteratively upgrade through major version 23.
We have run some small jobs to confirm normal operating conditions, but will otherwise rely on user reports of unforeseen issues potentially related to these upgrades. Therefore, please let us know if you notice any issues or if you have any questions/concerns by submitting a descriptive help request form found at the following link.
The next scheduled downtime for the HPCF are listed below:
- Tuesday September 19, 0800-1700 for upgrading ada SLURM

Reminder: taki Downtime Weds 9/13
To all taki users:
System Administrators will be taking the taki cluster environment offline Wednesday September 13 from 0800-1700. This is to upgrade the workload management software, SLURM. We expect (and hope) that the downtime will not require the entire nine hour duration. I will send an update toward the end of our downtime window alerting users to normal operation or the unlikely extension of the downtime window.
As always, let us know if you have any questions or concerns by submitting a descriptive help request form found at the following link.
