SDSC Expanse Notebook: Hello_World

This README file provides instructions for Expanse users to print ‘Hello, World!’ using both CPU and GPU on Expanse.

These notebooks only include basic python functions and commands intended to test if your environment has been configured properly. It is recommended that you run these hello world notebooks to check that everything has been configured correctly.

  Import Module:

• hello

Launch Galyleo

For specific information about launching Galyleo, please refer to this GitHub repository.

Environment Modules

By utilizing --env-modules, we can load any software installed in Expanse. For instance, executing this command line will load CPU modules and Anaconda3 within the Jupyter session.

• CPU: --env-modules cpu/0.17.3b,anaconda3

  galyleo launch --account abc123 --partition shared --cpus 2 --memory 4 --time-limit 00:30:00 --env-modules cpu/0.17.3b,anaconda3/2021.05
  

  Also this command line loads GPU modules and Anaconda3 in the Jupyter session to run in a GPU environment.

• GPU: --env-modules gpu/0.17.3b,anaconda3/2021.05

  galyleo launch --account abc123 —partition gpu-shared --cpus 10 --memory 92 --gpus 1 --time-limit 00:30:00  --env-modules  gpu/0.17.3b,anaconda3/2021.05 --bind /oasis,/scratch --nv
  

  Install Modules

  To run hello_world notebooks, we do not need to install any additional packages.
