CLUMEQ

July 6, 2011

It is with great pleasure that we today announce the opening of access to the new Guillimin HPC resources for all CLUMEQ users.  The new resources consist of 14400 Intel Westmere-EP cores distributed across 1200 compute nodes located at the CLUMEQ-McGill data centre at the Ecole de technologie superieure in Montreal.  Included in the facility is nearly 2 PetaBytes of disk storage using the parallel file system (GPFS).

By default all CLUMEQ user accounts based upon Compute Canada registrations are enabled on Guillimin.  Therefore the usernames and their passwords are the same on Guillimin and Colosse.

Documentation describing how to get started using the new Guillimin resources can be found at: http://support.clumeq.ca
