Using the luit cluster

In order to use our in-house cluster "luit" follow these steps:

Using UTEP Jakar

In order to perform HPC calculations on UTEP's new research cluod, these steps must be followed:

  • A reservation to a PC must be made, you must load an MPI linux image (to compile MPI code), login to the reservation, transfer files and compile your code. However, you cannot submit jobs from here.
  • A separate login to the HPC server must be made, here you can submit jobs, but cannot compile.
