The Nexus computational resources and scheduler house the CBCB's new computational partition.

Submission Nodes

There are two submission nodes for Nexus exclusively available for CBCB users.

  • nexuscbcb00.umiacs.umd.edu
  • nexuscbcb01.umiacs.umd.edu

Resources

The new CBCB partition has 22 new nodes with 32 AMD EPYC-7313 cores and 2000GB of memory each. CBCB users also has access to submitting jobs and accessing resources like GPUs in other partitions in Nexus.

QoS

Currently CBCB users have access to all the default QoS in the cbcb partition using the cbcb account however there is one additional QoS called highmem that allows significantly increased memory to be allocated.

Jobs

You will need to specify a --partition=cbcb, --account=cbcb and a specific --qos when you submit jobs into the CBCB partition.

Storage

CBCB still has its current storage allocation still in place. All data file systems are available computationally in the Nexus that were available in the previous CBCB cluster. Please note about the change in your home directory in the migration section below.

CBCB users can also request allocations from our Nexus#Storage policies.

Migration

Home Directories

The Nexus runs on our NFShomes home directories and not /cbcbhomes/$USERNAME. As part of the process of migrating into Nexus you may need or want to copy any shell customization from your existing /cbcbhomes to your new home directory. To make this transition easier /cbcbhomes is available to the CBCB submission nodes.

Operating System / Software

Previously CBCB's cluster was running RHEL7. The Nexus is running exclusively RHEL8 so any software you may have compiled may need to be re-compiled to work correctly in this new environment. The CBCB module tree for RHEL8 has just been started (and may not be populated) and if you do not see the modules you need you should reach out to the maintainers.
