Illinois Campus Cluster Online!
We are excited to announce that the Campus Cluster is now online at our new home (The National Petascale Computing Facility or NPCF)
Summary
New Services Nodes, Images, and Infrastructure Updates: We aimed for full node availability, but a few investor nodes require additional work and are temporarily offline.
Ongoing Work
We are actively addressing any offline nodes and will keep you updated on the progress and which nodes might still be affected. We expect that a majority of the offline nodes will be online by the end of the week due to delayed shipping of parts.
How to Access
Users can access the cluster via SSH: cc-login.campuscluster.illinois.edu
(note: 2-factor authentication via Duo is now required)
Also please note that the SSH keys of the login servers has been changed, accepting the new keys should be expected.
Documentation
You can read our full user documentation for the cluster for more information. The FAQ page also covers additional changes to the cluster environment.
Do you need computing power or storage for your research?
The Illinois Campus Cluster provides access to computing and data storage resources and frees you from the hassle of administering your own compute cluster. Any individual, research team, or campus unit can invest in compute nodes or storage disks or pay a fee for on-demand use of compute cycles or storage space. Staffing and shared infrastructure fees are partially subsidized by campus to help keep your costs as low as possible!
