Welcome to Europa Early Access!
Europa is a “new” high throughput computing (HTC) system that is … :
- 12,000 cores from a retired XSEDE/TACC HPC system, Stampede
- deployed in UT System Data Center, ARDC
- maintained by UTD sysadmins from OIT CIRC
- supported by TRECIS facilitators via this ask.ci category
- available for early testing now!
In order to get access to Europa, send an email to circ-assist@utdallas.edu, request an account and provide your netid, ask.ci username, and your PI. The OIT CIRC team will then create your account and notify you when it is ready to be used.
After that, you can access Europa via SSH. You must either be on campus or connected to the UTD VPN in order to access.
ssh netid@europa.circ.utdallas.edu
If you have any problems accessing Europa or if you have any questions about how to use the system, please create a new topic here.
Over the coming months, we will be launching a new support portal, developing a new documentation infrastructure, and conducting several short course training. All updates will be posted here, so stay tuned!
Best,
Chris
