Testing and performance tuning on these new GPU  nodes has gone faster than expected, so I’m releasing them into the wild for general use.  This adds 440 Teraflops of GPU processing capability to our cluster.

The “feature” parameter is required in your PBS script to specify a particular type of GPU.  For example, if you wanted to use 2 Titan V100 gpus on 1 node:

qsub -l nodes=1,ppn=20,gpus=2,feature=V100

The 4 Tesla K80 cores remain in the system, and can be specified like:

qsub -l nodes=1,ppn=28,gpus=4,feature=K80

For more details you can see this post or visit the HPC section of the website.

Happy Computing.
