About this training

Welcome to HPC Workshop 2 - Data Transfer and System Resources — your next step in mastering high-performance computing (HPC) with HSUper! This training builds on the foundations established in Workshop 1 and focuses on essential skills for effectively managing data and understanding system resources.

This course is part of the reimagined HSUper Workshops series, originally offered as a six-part on-site program. Now presented as flexible, self-paced digital trainings, these workshops are designed to empower HSUper users to independently develop the competencies needed to make the most of HPC resources.

Learning Goals

• Data Transfer: You will learn how to transfer data to and from HSUper.

• Get Information: After learning about data transfer, you will learn how to get all the information you need to manage your tasks. That includes information about the storage system, obtaining hardware information and information about nodes and partitions.

• Cluster Utilization: Last but not least, you will learn how to understand current cluster utilization. That will help you to manage your workloads effectively and plan your future resource needs.

Level of Difficulty

This workshop is tailored for new HSUper users at the Beginner-Level who are ready to take their first steps in the world of HPC. Whether you’re exploring computational science, running data-intensive simulations, or optimizing large-scale workflows, this course provides the foundational knowledge you need to get started.

Requirements

While this course is free to use for everyone, you will need Acess to HSUper and a VPN Connection or Access to the Campus-Network of HSU, to actually work through it.
