This folder contains instructions and files for setting up the example cluster used during the course. It's included here mostly for my benefit next time I want to redo the setup, but it might be useful to others.
# Cluster infrastructure
The cluster we're using is running on the Heidelberg installation of the de.NBI cloud. The current design is to create a 4 node cluster (1 controller, 3 compute nodes), with varying hardware specifications for each node so we can demonstrate resource managment.
Job scheduling is doing using [https://slurm.schedmd.com/](SLURM) since it is (a) free and (b) mirrors the infrastructure we're currently using at EMBL.
