The Qlustar team is pleased to announce the availability of the HPC
Core Stack 24.06 for Qlustar 13. It was published together with the
latest security bug fix update and can be installed by updating the
Qlustar 13 chroots on the cluster.
The HPC CORE STACK [1] was introduced with the release of Qlustar 13
as a new component definition within Qlustar. It is related to the
introduction of Spack.
This release includes the following individual major HPC core stack
component updates:
- Spack version 0.22.0 [2]
- Slurm version 23.11.8 [3]
- RDMA-Core version 52.0 [4]
- HWloc version 2.10.0 [5]
- UCX version 1.17.0 [6]
The new version of Spack allows easy and direct access to the
most recent compilers, MPIs and hundreds of other applications
relevant to HPC. Note that the default OpenMPI version is now
5.0.3, a new major version. The latest 4.1.x versions were also
tested to still build cleanly with this new Qlustar release.
As part of this update, Qlustar AlmaLinux was moved to the 8.10
version which is now the only release supported by upstream.
Minor version updates for other Qlustar 13 components are also
included, in particular Lustre (2.15.5) and gdrcopy (2.4.1) for use
with Nvidia GPUs.
