General Information

Enabling campus researchers to share computational and data resources with external collaborators is a powerful tool in advancing science. Sharing spare capacity even for short durations allows an institutional HPC resource a cost-efficient means of contributing to the larger research ecosystem. In this session we will show you how to integrate your HPC cluster resource to the Open Science Grid to support collaborative, multi-institutional science. The only requirements are that your cluster can provide SSH access to a single OSG staff member, that your cluster job submission and worker nodes have outbound IP connectivity, the operating system is CentOS/RHEL 6.x, 7.x or similar, and that a common batch scheduler is used (e.g. SLURM, PBS, HTCondor). During the tutorial we will configure OSG managed services to deliver workloads from science communities using the OSG to your HPC cluster.
