We have been trying to move up the schedule to start the operation of the new supercomputer system,

however, it has become difficult to start the operation in mid-December.

We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience.

 

We are currently preparing for the cloud system and the new system B according to the following schedule

to provide the service to the users who used the system from April to July without additional application and usage fees.

 

ZAdvance Provision of Cloud System

We are working hard to provide the service in late-November, however the detail date is still unsettled.

We will inform you as soon as it is ready.

 

ZOperation Start of the New System B

Since it is difficult to provide the system in advance in December,

we will revise the schedule to start the trial operation in January.

 

We will operate the system with priority placed on the stable operation

during the trial operation period from January to March, 2023.

Details on how to use the system will be announced as soon as they are ready.

 

Please refer to the following updated website for the new system.

https://www.iimc.kyoto-u.ac.jp/en/services/comp/supercomputer/other/coming_2022.html

 

We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience caused and appreciate for your understanding.

We have successfully completed the data migration to the new storage

and are ready to provide a file server for data access.

We will resume storage access on the following date and time.

Please use it to retrieve the necessary files.

 

Since it is still a temporary environment, file access is limited to read-only

and the connection method is limited to SFTP/RSYNC.

Interactive operation via SSH is not available.

Please note that the maintenance may be performed

without prior notice due to the construction of the entire system.

 

Period: Tue. November 8, 2022 at 9:00 a.m. -

Eligible Users: Users who have a valid supercomputer user number

Host name: hpcfs.kudpc.kyoto-u.ac.jp

Connection method: SFTP, RSYNC

  Except for the change of the host name, access is available

  by using existing login ID and SSH public key authentication.

@Please go to the User Portal to add or change your SSH public key.

ACCMS is participating in the HPCI which is intended to provide a framework

and structure so that users of high-performance computing (HPC) who tend to

be isolated locally can efficiently utilize the nation-wide high performance

computing resources.

 

Schedule of the call for proposals for the research projects using the HPCI system

including Fugaku in Period-A of FY2023 is as follows.

Please refer to the HPCI portal site for more information and

apply for the call within a period if you wish.

4.     Call for Collaborative Research Project for FX700 "Trial Use" and "Small Node Use" for FY2022iRepostingj

„ͺ„ͺ„ͺ„ͺ„ͺ„ͺ„ͺ„ͺ„ͺ„ͺ„ͺ„ͺ„ͺ„ͺ„ͺ„ͺ„ͺ„ͺ„ͺ„ͺ„ͺ„ͺ„ͺ„ͺ„ͺ„ͺ„ͺ„ͺ„ͺ„ͺ„ͺ„ͺ„ͺ„ͺ„ͺ

ACCMS calls for proposals of the collaborative research project

for the gTrial Use" and the "Small Node Use" of the Fujitsu FX700

which is equipped with the same ARM processor as the supercomputer Fugaku

for research groups using our supercomputer with the Group Course in the fiscal year 2022.

 

The "Trial Use" of FX700 is intended to be widely tried by the users of our supercomputer

by making the application form simple.

The research report is also simplified and only operation report and performance report

of the executed application are required.

 

The collaborative research project for the "Small Node Use" will be adopted

from users who have already finished the operation confirmation of the application

on the "FX700 Trial Use". Submitted proposals are reviewed

by Supercomputer System Collaborative Research Planning Committee.

If your proposal is adopted, you will be required to submit a research report.

There is no cost burden for using this project.

 

     Deadline for application submission: 5:00 p.m. on the 15th of each month
