Anunna is a High Performance Computer (HPC) infrastructure hosted by Wageningen University & Research Centre. It is open for use for all WUR research groups as well as other organizations, including companies, that have collaborative projects with WUR.
Using Anunna
Gaining access to Anunna
Access to the cluster and file transfer are traditionally done via SSH and SFTP.
- Logging into cluster using ssh and file transfer
- Alternative access methods, and extra features and services on Anunna
- Accessible storage methods on Anunna
Access Policy
Access needs to be granted actively (by creation of an account on the cluster by FB-IT). Use of resources is limited by the scheduler. Depending on availability of queues ('partitions') granted to a user, priority to the system's resources is regulated. Note that the use of Anunna is not free of charge. List price of CPU time and storage, and possible discounts on that list price for your organisation, can be retrieved from CAT-AGRO or FB-ICT.
Events
- Courses that have happened and are happening
- Downtime that will affect all users
- Meetings that may affect the policies of Anunna
Other Software
Cluster Management Software and Scheduler
Anunna uses Bright Cluster Manager software for overall cluster management, and Slurm as job scheduler.
- Monitor cluster status with BCM
- Submit jobs with Slurm
- Be aware of how much work the cluster is under right now with 'node_usage_graph'
- Rosetta Stone of Workload Managers
Installation of software by users
- Installing domain specific software: installation by users
- Setting local variables
- Installing R packages locally
- Setting up and using a virtual environment for Python3
- Setting up and using a virtual environment for Python3.4 or higher
- Installing WRF and WPS
Installed software
Useful Notes
Being in control of Environment parameters
- Using environment modules
- Setting local variables
- Set a custom temporary directory location
- Installing R packages locally
- Setting up and using a virtual environment for Python3
Controlling costs
Management
Project Leader of Anunna is Stephen Janssen (Wageningen UR,FB-IT, Service Management). Gwen Dawes (Wageningen UR, FB-IT, Infrastructure) and Stefan Bexkens (Wageningen UR,FB-IT, Infrastructure) are responsible for Maintenance and Management of the cluster.
Miscellaneous
- Electronic mail discussion lists
- Historical information on the startup of Anunna
- Bioinformatics tips, tricks, and workflows
- Running parallel R code on SLURM
- Convert between MediaWiki format and other formats
- GitLab: Create projects and add scripts
- Monitoring job execution
- Working with shared folders in the Lustre file system
