Our goal is to provide a simple introduction to both the hardware and software on this machine so that researchers can start using it as quickly as possible.
Note: we are currently experiencing the following error on some software on the head node:
| No Format |
|---|
error while loading shared libraries: libhcoll.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory |
If you see this error, it’s best tos start an interactive job first.
| No Format |
|---|
salloc -c 4 -p hawkcpu -t 2:0:0 srun --pty bash |
The compute nodes do not have the error

The best way to get an interactive job is with the combination of salloc … srun. Both are SLURM commands, and when used together, they will allow you to enter a SLURM job and use the compute nodes directly. Here is an example:
| No Format |
|---|
salloc -c 4 -p expresshawkcpu -t 2:0:0 srun --pty bash |
Users can select the number of cores and time limit (up to 4 hours) using the usual SLURM flags. It is also possible to use other partitions for interactive jobs with longer limits, but we cannot predict your wait times in advance.
