SLURM testbed
Abstract
The XSEDE Software Testing and Deployment group needs a small SLURM testbed system (4 computes nodes + 1 head node) on which to test and evaluate grid software that needs to interact with SLURM, in particular UNICORE and Genesis II. These nodes need not be physical servers; VMs (e.g. on Alamo) would be fine.
Intellectual Merit
This testing directly affects XSEDE's ability to test and deploy new versions of grid software for use by the national user community.
Broader Impact
This testing directly affects XSEDE's ability to test and deploy new versions of grid software for use by the national user community.
Use of FutureGrid
Testing and evaluation of grid software that needs to interact with SLURM, in particular UNICORE and Genesis II.
Scale Of Use
4 computes nodes + 1 head node for 4-6 weeks beginning early to mid November
