This past summer I interned at Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL) in northern New Mexico with the Supercomputer Institute Summer School. My project was accepted into The International Conference for High Performance Computing, Networking, Storage, and Analysis SC23 Graduate Posters ACM Student Research Competition. I analyzed 6 HPC filesystems maintained by LANL, titled “Seeing the trees for the forest: Describing HPC Filesystems with the Grand Unified File-Index (GUFI).” I also completed a 3 week hands-on HPC bootcamp, which included assembling and configuring a 11-node HPC cluster. We used 11 GB servers (R272-Z32-00) for our nodes, and connected using Mellanox EDR Infiniband switch for fast communication (100 Gbps). I used netboot to practice manually configure the stateless cluster, before using Warewulf to provision the cluster automatically. I set up Slurm on the cluster to manage resources and scheduling, and Ansible for configuration management.
